Feel better Bro, and take it easy on getting back to work too soon. :beer:

Get better soon....sound pretty amazing you're cleared for light work on Monday.

OK, I'm bored out of my mind, my wife won't let me do anything, and its raining outside. My brain is a little frazzled from the percocets. I have this urge to go juggle chainsaws or shoot something. Kendall's running around wide open chaing Banks and I'm slowly but surely eating everything I can find in the house. I can't find any good war movies or westerns on TV, so I'm here typing out dribble and planning my next boat expense. Good thing is, my phone has been ringing all day with work, I've got to find me a helper. I'd ask Oz but I think we'd just end up drinking at Finz instead of working

For Gods sake spare! You don't tie flies or reload or somethin'?
Really, I'm glad you're felling better enough to *****!:clap:

Ok, here's something you can help me out with.
See what data you can find for the 45 Colt (Long Colt) using Blue Dot with a 250gr Hornady XTP.
I don't know the answers yet but I think I'm close.

from my Lee manual
nothing with blue dot in a 250 gr jacketed or xtp
260 gr xtp starting load 1.4 gr 839 fps ne load 13.0 gr 941 fps
not much given in the Lee Book with Blue Dot

Barnes manual only had one load and it was with the 225 xpb
(I just started reloading, the barnes book has a lot of real interesting info the other books don't have, but its with stuff I'll never use)

All my reloading stuff is up on a high shelf, thought about dragging it down, but figured I'd bust my *** trying to get it down. My neighbor and I just started reloading(we're splitting cost on materials), he's got a Judge with a 6" barrel that he want's to load up practice rounds for, I'm starting with 45 ACP to reload. I just got thru about 20 pages of crap that I read thru about running cast lead bullets thru a glock, got a head ache from all the bs and inflated egos. Any recommendations for acp? I picked up some ranier 230 FMJs and got some 230 gr LRN. I've been reading up on casting my own bullets, I've got a real good connection on high grade bulk lead, with the way ammo is going up(specifically 45 acp), its about the only way I'll be able to shoot. BTW, I've got a set of 270 Win dies if you know anyone that needs them. I'm going to at least sort my small primer and larger primer acp brass tomorrow
