I still have about twelve pounds of black powder on hand, so have no concerns powder-wise at least until next summer. Most of my guns are ball shooters and I have ball molds for everything from .32 to 58 caliber plus enough lead to last the rest of my life. I also have a decent supply of #11 caps and 209's, but I will scoop up more caps if they appear at the local Walmart.

Thanks to Ed, I also have a lifetime supply of 350 and 460 grain pure lead conicals for the .45 renegade.

The loggers clear-cut half of our 10-man/900-acre lease last Spring and that area is now a waist high deer buffet. Great for the population but still hunting that area is out of the question. They were supposed to cut the other half this summer, but that hasn't happened yet. I'll bet those suckers are going to move in with the cutters, skidders and haul trucks right at the beginning of the season. So it's going to be an interesting year.
