Go in the door go left and look for the large "reloading supplies" sign overhead. David is a large man, you can't miss him.

Hey no kidding. I'm glad to know I was already giving Dave my business. I bought powder and primers from him at the post Christmas show. Look forward to seeing him again.

Don't forget to mindful of the weekend pass, I got burned last time. Or I should say the vendors lost an opportunity, I wouldn't pay again and I missed the sign the first time, so I just walked. Had plenty of cash to buy, just to stubborn to pay extra for a weekend pass!

What do you all think the roads will be like in the morning? I want to go, but I'm thinking about waiting until Sunday morning now.

supposed to refreeze overnight, but tomorrows high is over 40 degrees, so id say it will be fine by mid day.  I drove home about 5 pm and the roads were fine, plenty of salt brine.  I think with cautious driving you'd be fine

It's a two day show.  They usually only do passes at the three day events.  Get stamped Saturday, go back Sunday and ask them to freshen up the stamp.  It's always worked for me, and others I know.  There should be enough of the previous day's stamp for them to see it unless you wash your hands 18 times a day.

I'm going to plan on being there tomorrow despite how much I dislike shows at Chilhowee.

 

You will loathe it.  The one a few weeks ago was madness and pointless, unless you're needing reloading supplies that is.

What time you going

Depends on the ice. I'd like to get there early but I'm afraid getting up my driveway and down the hill on my street might disagree. What time are you heading out?

Doesn't do any good if you can't find the components needed to reload.

 

Also, how much is the initial start up cost? I've priced a few items before and it appeared it was going to cost me a lot to get started. For someone that doesn't shoot all that often it would take me a long time just to break even.

 

I'd like to know how much you guys pay per round to reload your own .223 ammo.

My last batch was about $0.19/round.

I'm going first thing. I think most roads will be fine. I was outside 20 mins ago and my driveway was fine. I think the rain is over so just standing water is the major concern. If you don't have 4x4 I can come pick you up if you wanna ride.

I appreciate it but the hills at my place are the problem. I've got my neighbor's 4x4 currently freshly engraved in a large oak in my yard. I'll be there as soon as I can get out, hopefully by opening time. Want to try and grab some coffee or some lunch? Maybe Mac and the crowd are free too...

Always like seeing youse guys, but I'm bagging the show, only went to the last one at Jacobs to witness the historic/histrionic frenzy.

 

Somebody holler if you wind up doing latish lunch, might could meet.
