Hello from the Shawnee hills of southern Illinois. I've been casting bullets for 23 years and handloading since I was 15, having started with a Lee loader in .38 special. My main interests are revolvers and rifles, and tinkering with guns. I recently converted an old number 4 rolling block from .32 rimfire to .22 lr, and, after reading Ed Harris' bunny gun articles, I'm planning to build some of my own. Great forum here with a wealth of knowledge!!

Welcome to the CBA forum.

If you have an interest in shooting your rifles in local competition or just getting to know a good bunch of cast bullet shooters, you are not too far from the Wind Hill range.  Call Stan Livingston 309-371-9709 for more information.

Ken, you got that right! It's about as far from Chicago as you can get, especially by culture! They still close schools here for opening day of the firearm deer season.
