Throw back to a simpler time

[PA4476]

So, I have 8 different reloading presses. And I reload for everything I own, from 380 acp to 458 SOCOM and 50 Beowulf. Including 410, 28, 20 and 12 gage.

But this morning I dug out one of my old (1973) Lee Loaders, and some Bullseye powder I have had for at least 40 years. Just so I can remind myself how I used to reload when I started out at 7 years old helping my dad. I loaded up some 38 specials with148 grain wadcutters, and 3 1/2 grains of Bullseye.

Was an enjoyable reminder of simpler times sitting in the floor with my dad.

Just thought I’d share.

Very cool throwback. I have some of those cans that are still sealed and I plan to crack open and use. I have one in 2400, Unique and Bullseye.

How'd they shoot?

Like they were loaded on a modern machine with fresh powder.

Yes sir old school can still get it done. I loaded .410 just a few weeks
ago. I have the set my Dad taught me on. I too enjoy reloading and am trying to
pass it on.
