mrjigger, you may or may not know this – ants naturally wax their dirt/sand for their mounds. If you find any huge ant hills and can tolerate a few ants – an easy way to get some waxed dirt when in a bind. I’ve got a few out in the land along my fence line and get into it as needed.
Bob, hope you get to cure that itchy finger. I prepped about 600 brass for my 22-250 this weekend. Daughters loading her .270s right now and I’ll start the production on charging and seating tonight. Didn’t realize I popped of nearly 700 rounds between June through Aug.
