William was a dear friend of mine! The loss of his dear wife recently had to be a great stress on him! He did a lot of cast bullet research ( much of it has been ignored by the community) I got him to become a member here but I think he only visited a few times. I will miss Him.

he did do a lot of bullet stuff.
I sent about 50 PM's back and forth with him a couple of years back, he really was a great guy.

At large, whereabouts unknown.
I will always remember William as a kind, helpful man. A true Gentleman in every sense of the word.

I hate to hear this too. He will be missed. I noticed he definitely had a sense of humor about him in some of his posts when i first joined over on that "other site".
He was one of the first to reply to my posts when i joined there a few years ago.
