I am so happy to be reloading and shooting my 10's again.  Pretty much had parked them all in the safe due to working a lot of OT and not being able to get my go to 10 powders.  I do not like having to pay ransom prices for powder but did on a few occasions.  Had to break in a new Glock G40 I bought. That took a lot of my reloaded stock pile.  Well now I am retired and finally starting to find some Blue Dot (one of my all time favorites), Power Pistol and Longshot.  Happy days.  Been a reloading and shooting fool.  It is so nice to be back to the 10.

I'm just now needing to start replacing some powders and primers. I knew what was coming if Obummer got his second term and stockpiled everything I could afford to. I have bought 22lr at normal price but normal price for target 22's isn't the same as bulk. When my son and I shoot 500 rds of 22's is normal 1000 rds is extended and it extended more than not.

I was working up a 10mm load last week and after loading with different powders 800X and LongShot and different powder weights for both powders. I then ran them through the chronograph I came in and told my wife that was the most fun that I have had in a while with my clothes on. Enjoy yourself.

yfdcap, does that equate to Fire Dept. Captain?  The reason I ask is I'm a retired fireman and many FD guys have been using the 10mm guns...go figure!  Congrats with the new G-40 and getting back in the saddle again!   8)

Thank you Quick2 and Shadow.  Yes, retired fire capt. 26 years.  Shadow, we have met before on a couple forums.  I'm in Yuma AZ.  You actually helped me years ago when I was just getting started reloading 10mm.  You turned me on to this forum if I remember correctly.  Good to hear from you.  Hope retirement has been good to you.  I am loving it.

I thought that your screen name was familiar, Glad to have been able to help and as you can see I'm still around and enjoy my retirement as well.  Be sure to stroll through the Pull-Down sections to see what I have been doing...http://10mm-firearms.com/factory-10mm-ammo-pull-downs/

I spent a couple hours reading.  Excellent work.  Valuable info.
