    Nice! Thanks for the update!

    I use a piece of pure-copper Chore Boy wrapped around a bronze brush to remove lead buildup when it might occur.

I'll finish with a proper cleaning and start from scratch again, but the Bayou Bullets subsonic loads I shot today held to a quarter size or so at 20 yards with a 3MOA red dot on it, which is better than can be expected for that dot and offhand. My 40 S&W AR carbine with a 2moa dot was a bit tighter.

      Main priority was finishing the 243 load development for this deer hunt I leave on in a week. It shot 0.77 and 0.91, so I'm happy with it. Back to the lever loading in a couple weeks.

      45 or so hours until I pick up my new(old) Marlin, too!!!

        No kidding Mark! Now that this house of ours no longer leaks and the walls are fixed, I'm a needing to shoot. I have a few other minor irons in the fire, and Mark, we'll certainly wait till you're good to go. No rush. I'll give you a jingle Mon. Alright you lever lovers, lets hear some updates. I'm gettin' back to normal around this damn house and I'm feelin' antsy. Spring is here!

            These are the times when UPS really ticks me off. I waited all day for my gun to be delivered. Next thing I know the UPS web page says that they "Attempted Delivery" ..my whole family was home all day, I was in my garage with the door open during the time they claim to have attempted delivery. Of course a call to complain lands of deaf ears.

            Now I get to wait all day tomorrow for delivery.

                Ohh, pictures Spyder, pictures.
                I briefly thought about a Henry single shot, but, I really need[want!] another lever.

                        Purrrrtttyyy!!! Going to have to put some kind of optic on it. Just noticed that there's a chip in the front of the rear sight blade that won't affect function but may as well upgrade!

                                Looks like their 22" offering, but his wide-angle phone lens pic exaggerates the effect of lengthiness.

                                NOICE! Spyder!
