[QUOTE="Charlielee, post: 2769906, member: 73299"] I remember buying a brand new Sweet 16 when I was 15 with the money that was earned chopping weeds around oil wells and other equipment. I paid $185.00 for it, I had only made $200.00 at $1.00/hr that summer when my boss died when he fell off a tank while measuring it. So no more job. But I did buy a Lee Hand Loader and started loading shells for it. Of course I put too much pressure on them so they swelled so much that shotgun would cut a strip of that Nimrod hull and dump the shot into the works. I certainly learned from that! It took a lot of shaking to get an once of #9 shot out of the action. That was 1968!! What fun! [/QUOTE]
