One thing I remember from a book I read many years ago. Is that talking to yourself is normal. Answering yourself means you are mentally unstable.

Oh just admit it already... you're getting old and decrepit.
Are you stocked up on Depends?

Depends...

    Seems the C-19 quarantine has claimed another victim. 
Trying to finish up 9mm polymers when the handle on my 550 B went so forward it hit the collection bin ramp. 
Further inspection showed ALOT of slop in the link arms to frame, link arms to crank, and crank to main shaft. 
Did notice the shell plate platform rotating ever so slightly on the down stroke before the major malfunction. 
   
   Contacted Dillon .
Will let you know how their "No B.S. Warranty" is.
They were pretty good about it last month when they sent me a new slotted bell crank when the "button" that holds the spring popped off.
So spent the day checking and cutting more .308 brass.
Boring   

My wife and I drove down to Phoenix today to take her niece and BF out for lunch. She got a new job and we wanted to celebrate with her. Before we left this morning I loaded up 150 - 7.62x54R rounds for my Mosin Nagant. I loaded them with a 200gr gas checked lubed boolit sized to .313 over IMR 4198 Powder. Tomorrow I’m going shooting at the pistol range. Gotta figure out what I want to shoot. Decisions decisions...

Did you make the boolits?

Couldn't go to the range this weekend, spent the down time cleaning/prepping 45 and 38 brass.  Waiting on a new batch of bullets (heads!) to load for this week.

No, I am still just making 357/38 boolits. Practicing with those. I had choke rifle boolits right before I moved. Gonna use them up before I start casting for those. I’m still trying to make room for doing the powder coating. I’m getting there.

Such difficult decisions . . .

I didn’t go shooting today. Though if I had I only had to go outside and kill the fucking pigeons that have nested underneath my solar panels. I had to stay home today to have the pest control people come and give me estimates. And I have to stay home tomorrow because my Carcano is now going to be delivered tomorrow instead of Wednesday. But I think I can go in the morning on Wednesday because the pest control guys are coming on Wednesday afternoon. I’m thinking I should shoot my S&W Model 10 on Wednesday.

Pigeon lives matter

What? You support the thin gray line? 

my first 223 reloads.  target is 50 yards
shot with my bolt action 223.  will try in my AR next
top target is with factory Federal 55 grain FMJ.  (AR 223 ammo)
bottom 3 targets are with my handloads.  Hornady factory seconds, 55 grain, FMJBT.  each target is different powder charge.  not bad for my 1st reloads of 223

Waycist and fascist. You're like a white, non-binary chiropractor who practices acupuncture only on cis-Asians.

Dang!  How small are these birds?  You still would need to climb your roof to get them after you shoot them with you pellet gun . . .

They’re normal size. They really squeeze down to get underneath. They have to because the hawks dive bomb them all the time. The hawks got one on the 4th of July and killed and gutted it on my front porch! 😂 I’m still finding feathers all over my front yard. And occasionally one of their eggs rolls off the roof and I find it on the ground.

Hmmm....tie a cat to your roof?

Funny thing about all of this is every pest control company I called I said I have birds nesting under my solar panels. Everyone said “I’ll bet they are pigeons”. Apparently it is a thing that occurs often as they all stated they have been getting more and more calls for this particular issue.

Install bird spikes under the panels?
