I WIN!

[oldatheart]

The wife asked if she could try casting for Her 44 special.

 

[oldatheart]

Not bad for her first time. Way better than my first few years!

 

[Brad]

Well done. Now to get her to cast for your guns. Looks like a Lee, maybe around 200 gr RNFP?

Not to be picky but does she own safety glasses?

 

[Brad]

Oh yeah, you won when she married you. That is how it works for most guys.

I told you.... Women like her are tough to find.

 

[Rick]

I'm wondering what it is that oldatheart does at the casting bench that he needs to keep the TP so close and handy?

 

[Brad]

You haven't ever had an "Oh crap" moment at the pot?

That would be my fault. "monkey see "

Yep lee mold. I have to return it though as she cast the pins must have shifted ? They started to cast very off center. This was the first time with this mold.

It's to clean shotgun barrels works great. But I am impressed that you spotted it!

We need to keep it quiet. She might realize I'm a jackass. Everybody tell her she's the lucky one!

Mine knows I'm a jackass, but I work hard to redeem myself, I'll bet you do the same. The closest mine comes to casting is to invade the cave while I'm doing it so she can giggle and tell me how "cute" she thinks I am. And how stinky it is when I flux ans a waft of smoke doesn't quite all make it out the powered vent.

 

[J.Michael]

I'm not the safety Nazi but where are the safety glasses? No second chance with hot lead. My wife would NEVER cast a bullet or load one. She said that's why I married you. J.Michael

 

[smokeywolf]

Mine hasn't done any reloading yet, but once we've moved and I can get into a bigger shop I'll teach her some basic machining skills and she will absolutely learn to reload. She's a lot younger than I am, so she has to be able to continue to do for herself after I've gone on the happy hunting grounds.
I'm fortunate that she tolerates this plump, fuzzy, old man.

 

[fiver]

careful with the whole casting thing and the wife scenario.
it ended up costing me a bit over $2,000.00 cause "it looked interesting".
I now have a spare master caster and about 20 molds for it.

 

[freebullet]

Congratulations! You know you found a good one when she can make her own boolits.

My wife cast 700 lee311-155 on our "casting date" as she called it a few weeks ago. Gas checked them herself too. She's made 2500+ so far.

 

[Charles Graff]

I know nothing about you, zero, zip, nada, except it is obvious you married above yourself.

 

[358156hp]

Oh, he did exactly that.

 

[Brad]

Most of us do.

 

[358156hp]

You're another one...

 

[oldatheart]

Screw you guys I'm perfect lol!

Ok maybe I am lucky but shhh she might hear.
