Hello all: Kids were over today and son-inlaw helped me post pics of daughter Lori's new Handi in 300 Blackout. The rifle is wearing a weaver scope purchased from Joe B. here on the forum, thanks again Joe. Cast bullets in the pictures are the Lee TL309-230-5R and the C309-180-R. As Gary mentioned earlier the long 230s need to be a little frosty to get good fill out. These were my first attempt with the mould so I'm sure with practice they will get better. Brass was easily formed from 223 and also picked up a couple hundred new pieces of Nosler. Always fun to work with a new to me caliber. Will let you know how it all shakes out with a little experience. Any advice appreciated. GP

That's part of the reason I got Lori this little rifle, to encourage her toward getting the stamp. She's licensed to carry concealed in all but a hand full of states and I think it would be fun to get her shooting suppressed. Girl likes to shoot, dads proud.  GP
