Hey Guys, new guy here. I heard about the site from over on Castboolits and decided to join up. I've been reloading since the late 60's and have been a brass rat for most of that time. Looking forward to posting something in the trading section.
I want to give DukeInFlorida a special thanks for his help. Me and spellcheck had a little operator error with my email address!

Actually, I kind of want one. Thinking about a bolt gun, short heavy barrel, prolly suppressed. Something to shoot hogs with at night. Be about right, I just traded off all of my 300 BO brass!

I have a few 300 BLK guns. One is the Ruger American Ranch bolt action that I bought on sale at Cabelas for $399 It only weighs 6 lbs and has been accurate with my powder coated cast lead lyman 311410 bullets. You might not have any 300 BLK brass, but you can always make some from 223 brass.

What? Thinking about it after you just sent me that pile of .300 AAC in our trade?;)

Makes perfect sense right? :o A 300 AAC is probably in the future, but there are some other things in line ahead of it.

Yeah, I was like that when I had 3 10mm pistols, but wanted a 10mm Carbine. Now look at me.

Wow, you have a 10mm carbine with a 1911 lower. I don't think it's possible to get any cooler than that. You have officially arrived in my book.

It doesn't shoot too bad, either.
