    I sent a package to my brother in Ireland. The PO asked if I wanted all the insurance and stuff....I told them I wanted the cheapest and slowest mailing method possible. I don't bother with all the extras. If something is that valuable or special, I'll deliver it myself.

    Wow, that's awesome. I certainly wasn't expecting anything today and then I saw the mail lady parked in the driveway. She said "I have 2 packages for you".....woo-hoo!

    OK, so far I have some bullets, .357 cases and a .5 lee dipper to send your way. I'll try to make copies of the .38 and .357 pages in the Lee book, at least the ones that matter to you. Hopefully Dave has a .3 lee dipper for you.
    Wes those powders will work. I'll wait a couple more days in case something else comes up.

    I have a Lee Safety Scale to spare! Someone PM me an address. I'm working the election today, but it will be in the mail tomorrow.

    It's in perfect condition, but I just picked up a Dillon scale off of Gunbroker.

    with the scale we don't need to worry about the Lee dippers. He is getting a powder measurer or two if I remember right.
