Well Gents, just to let you all know, I have received all the bullets that I ordered from several bullet makers and it was one heck of a chore, to carry them downstairs and stack them above the bench. I had forgotten how heavy such things can be. However, I do honestly believe I have enough lead to keep away all the Indian attacks that may come my way.

Good on ya ! ! ! I have never been in that predicament, though. I cast my bullets one at a time and they don't seem nearly as heavy as what you describe ;D.

Apparently my mail carrier thinks there too heavy also.  She will manage to stuff them in my tiny little PO Box though.

Next time stagger the orders so you dont have to carry them all at once.

They move a ton of junk mail for a third of what we pay per pound but complain about a little ole box of lead at the full rate.  I'm sorry I don't feel their pain

Hi,

I carried mail just long enough to be very happy when I was let go ... between the us-verses-them (workers union vs management)  ... the constant strive to better ones time verses the union telling you to slow down  ... they can have it all ... I wish them all the best ...

TTFN,

I recently ordered 500 bullets each of 45 acp 230 gr, 45 Colt 250 gr, 45 Colt 200 gr, and 9mm 125 gr which shipping was 61 Lbs. Now that is a bit much but should keep me busy for a while to say the least.
