    This is gonna be another fun little project some of us have been kicking around. As many know we're known to do some crazy shit for people. Some who are in serious need, and some we just like to do things for. Well, this is one we just wanna do because we can. The plan is to hook up the Human Honey Badger (@oneshot86) with reloading equipment, and as @Mike Casselton and @Geno C. say, take him down the Rabbit Hole of Reloading. :ROFLMAO:

    There is no doubt damn near every one of us has 'something' laying around we could donate to the cause. I'll make a list of things off the top of my head and as they are obtained I'll denote them in red to show they've been taken care of. For contact/shipping information, you may PM me for his dope at the Nursery.

    I'm thinking we'll knock this one outta the park, as usual, but probably in record time, or damn near. (y) I/We/Us would like to thank you in advance for your participation in hooking up a damn good guy, our coveted Brother @oneshot86, who as many of us do has the wherewithal to take it on himself, but it's just not the same when like minded friends come together and just share some Brotherly Love !!! Now let's do this !!! :giggle:

    Whatever else you can think of. We may very well have duplicates but we can leave it up to him to decide what he wants to retain and what he may want to pass along to some other poor unsuspecting person. @oneshot86 just let it happen man. You can't fight the power. :love:

    Aaaaaaaaaand GO !

    I'll go through my stuff and see what I got. I'm certain I've got a few things to toss his way and will. I won't check'm off the list since if he has the chance to 'High-Grade', so be it. More power to a deserving bloke I always say. Well, not always.

    I have a full setup still in the boxes. Progressive machine, gizmos, gadgets, whatchamacallits. I literally inherited it years ago and never used it. Let me get some pics of some of it so y'all know what we're dealing with (I have no idea).

    It's all his, and I'll deliver it, but @Mike Casselton is going to have to show him how to use it

    This is going as planned. He was up pretty late enjoying some Natty Ice and his speakers he just put up. Got a few snaps of him rocking the rafters. He must be in the field right now. He's gonna shit a purple monkey when all this starts showing up. UPS, FEDEX, USPS, and a tinted out Black Suburban show up on the same day. Epic.

    Here's the machine, but there's at least another box or two of stuff I think.

    View attachment 6920613

    From what I could decipher, it was previously used for pistol ammo, so all those dies and whatsits are his as well
    Bye the bye.......Dillon has an overhaul program that is just tits. (Whomever can) call them, get a quote and ship it back to them. They made my XL650 look like new. Think it was about $75.00. At that price, they arent making much, if any money.

    I've got a bunch of dies left over from when my dad passed, shit I don't use but couldn't justify letting go to auction to sell for $1 a set... I'd rather give them to someone.

    That's what I'm talking bout !!! Thanks Brother. Mucho appreciated and obviously for a damn good cause. As soon as the Human Hangover gets done running around and clearing his head we'll get a list of what calibers he'll be playing with. Really appreciate ya stepping up and putting Dad's things you don't need to a good cause. Means the world to us. Sorry to hear of your loss and I and others share your experience and thought. Got a few things as well from a long gone Dad in regards to Reloading, but I can't yet come to part with them. Been with me since the 70's when I started this game. What I have parted with I'm 100% certain he fully supports giving them to others for this great hobby of ours. Stand by to receive......... ;)
     
    1J, 5 years in the Marines & I can stand by to receive with the best of 'em. ;)

    Thanks for the kind words on the old man. I've got plenty of more sentimental things from him than some unused dies... He'd much rather see them go to something like this.

    So, standing by...

    Thx for all the replies guy's. I see I've got some PM's to answer as well as some posts you've made here. I'm not dogging it in Jail today. I gotta head out to Court and won't be back to the Jail till around 1300 best guess. If things aren't going sideways over there I'll try to answer ya'll from there, without the Judge catching me and giving me "The Family Look". ;)

    Appreciate the hell outta all the input. We're gonna hook that boy up Big Time. Go Hide !!!! (y)
