    OK folks... I have gotten myself in trouble... again... Took a road trip up to RCBS to fix a dummkopf issue. Nice folks, patient, and I went away informed and happy. And, since I had not be in, walked next door to Huntingtons. BIG MISTAKE. I now have in my possession a '44 L-E #4 Mk 1* Long Branch. It's rather cool, two years older than I. However, seem to be void of any 303 British brass. And most suppliers are NIS. :-( Thought I would ask if anyone had some gathering dust and of no use to them. Btw, NICE folks at Huntingtons. I'll bring the LB next month if anyone wants to see one up close. Thanks.
    I may have some extra, I'll look this weekend.

      I wouldn't call it "gathering dust" or " no use for them", but I haven't gotten around to loading them yet.

      I think I have about 40 rounds of Winchester and R-P .303 I tumbled not that long ago

      I'll look for them in the garage and bring them to the next meeting...in case you don't find any before that

        So, I was thinking of bringing my ultrasonic cleaner to the next meeting if any of you guys would like to play with it. Also I was wondering if anyone had a cut off saw? I need to cut a 1/4'' steel rod into smaller pieces.

            Hack saw???? :-)

            Depends on how many you need or how precise you desire, but I have a Dewalt cut off saw with a thin abrasive wheel. Could bring to the meeting. 5" work in the parking lot? Let me know.

              9mm... Thanks for the offer, but save your time. One of the others PM'd and I think I'm going to be good. Have a preference for PPU or HXP at this point. The first hand discussions at the range have me a bit leery of Rem-chesters for longevity.

              Josh... I was able to pick a few boxes of loaded PPU at the gun show Sat, so am probably good for the moment. It will get me through the 1st match in a few weeks.

              Appreciate the offers.

                In response to the cut off saw, I am getting a foredom for Christmas, but the wife is starting to get cranky about the bar stock in the house so time to get my project finished. It doesn't have to be cut at the meeting I can pick it up later in the month or at the next meeting whenever it is. And pro-tip don't use a 3 ft long piece of steel to poke at the missus.

                  Now... I would have thought Mr. Ball's leading character would have known enough to not go poking at something or someone that could turn and bite him... especially cranky ladies. :-)

                      Disappointing when you order reloading parts and pieces from Brownells, after doing the C&R discount gig, to find out the specific parts ordered are ineligible for any discount. Oh well...

                        Should've ordered from me.

                          Any idea when the next Xtreme group buy will be?...I should have ordered a lot more. I'll be luck to make it to the end of the year. I've been buying discount sportsman's warehouse gift cards to get primers, but they have been hard to come by lately. Might be time to bulk order those as well. I've been shooting a lot more than I thought since I started reloading.

                              The extra 5% off from the emails is a nice little bonus, but we saved some serious money from that group buy. I'm in for another 10,000 or so when you guys are ready to do another one. I will start getting desperate early next year.
