Who did the brisket last year? Are they planning on doing it again this year? Any chance of putting one of the porkers from the hunt in the BBQ?

shot some of the rifles today. After some fiddling, tested handloads, got the .44-40 & .38-55 shooting at about the speed I wanted, but need to do some more work on them. The Marlin .35 Rem seem pretty reliable and solid.

I have a side deal going with Bob the "Bullshooter". Since he has a beautiful fusil that digests lead, and I have a plentiful supply of lead, we are going to do a trade. Today I began the melt and clean portion of lead preparation
Bob! (Bulshooter)
Tracy-
Many, many thanks for your time and effort in procuring and processing the lead.
It looks like you've prepped 72 ingots. That's more than sufficient. It will take me a fair while to convert those into lead round balls and shoot them downrange. If events work as planned, you may certainly shoot some yourself with the fusil in March.
My trade-goods are sitting in a box located next to the front door to help me remember to bring them to the shoot. More than the lead, I'm happily anticipating seeing you again. You and your family are special persons - my wife fell in love with your girls singing on the video you posted last year.
