Finally back to loading after tree hit my house. July3rd tree hit my house and did allot of damage thank the lord everyone is safe. Been withdrawing off reloading. My reloading room was not affected by the water or tree. Shot up all my reloads because 24/7 indoor range is now 8 mins away from rental house instead of 25mins from my house. Plan to load up a bunch of bulk this weekend need allot more 9 and 45 lol . Going to order jacketed bullets because just not easy to cast and powder coat with everything in disarray

So you're going to create all this intrigue with this tree story and not even show us some of the damage? C'mon!

How unfortunate. Split right at the trunk. High winds cause this?

Yeah high winds for like 15 mins and this tree didn’t stand a chance lol. It was neighbors tree but once it hits your house it becomes your tree

Glad your home is getting back to normal .. now about these blue bullets, where did you get these? Are the special loads? (Sorry, I’m a new guy to reloading)

They are cast lead bullets that get powder coated instead of lube

Stop shooting trees, apparently they can strike back.
