Saw a sign for a yard sale in the little town near where I live..so traipsed down there this morning. I found a bunch of 8mm ammo on stripper clips 175 rounds. Headstamped AA 1955 and the price was right I think at 50 bucks. Got a few other items too. 2 rolls of sheet lead totaled 23 lbs and two one pound bars of Taracorp tin all for the grand price of 8 bucks. Also got 2 pewter bowls..Dollar each..Pewter is of course mostly tin... more casting in my future. Just what I needed..more lead:rolleyes:

You never know what is available at a yard sale until you beat the bushes. Take care. All the best...

I did good last weekend. On Saturday hit a yard sale and bought a box of reloading items for 30 bucks. Sold one item an Ohaus 1005 scale in like new condition for 75 bucks. Went to a small gun show On Sunday. Walked by a fellow putting a few items on his table and jst had to buy some. He had a little Star Model S 380 that looks unfired in the box for 150 bucks. I had to buy that. Star Model S looks like a small 1911. He also had some of that Eldorado(PMC) personal defense ammo for 10 bucks a box so bought 2. Only 25 rounds a box but still fairly priced. Came by his table a bit later and he had a S&W Model 637..A stainless colored Airweight Chief's Special. In the box and looks unfired also. Bought from him after a little dickering for 400 and got a box of Hornady Personal Defense 38 ammo and new in package little leather holster for it. I know they sell for much more than that these days. Momma likes 'em both but she can only have one... unless she really insists
