Have you purchased anything gun related in the last three days?

Where did you buy the grips? I would love a nice set for my Model 15-3.

Ron, found a set on eBay but pricey to say the least. Mine came with Diamond Magnas that numbered to the gun but don't fit my hand very well. I think S&W eliminated them starting with 15-3 in 1968 if I'm not mistaken. But they'd look good on your 15-3 and a tad smaller than regular S&W targets.

Athlon spotting scope and table-top tripod. Been trying to make do with binocs but they just don't cut it beyond 100 yds, esp w/ smaller calibers like .223

Ordered a Clamp a Rib (add on vent rib) for a plain barrel 870 I traded for. Mid choke should be just right for one league I shot in where max distance is 20 yards.

Many thanks and yes, they are pricey but I figure they would really dress up the nice revolver it is. Yes also on 1968 with the Model 15-3 which is exactly what I have.

I did load some .300 winmags using RL23 and a box of Hammer Hunters 166gr gifted to me.

I also got a small rotary tumbler for really dirty brass.

If the world ends or more up to date, If IDA floods me ( no chance, I bought on a hill) , I'll have these ladder loads ready. Used RL 23, new Sig brass that I got a while back.

A few boxes of ammo. At the local lgs, Winchester 38 spl. 130gr. Fmj. At $45 box of 50. Only had a few boxes. Only had a few boxes of Hornady 9mm at over $63, 25 rounds Crazy.
At Dunham's sports. Remington 9mm 115gr. Fmj and 147gr. Fmj at $25 ea. box of 50. Dunham's had more handgun ammo on the shelf than I've seen in a while. 9mm, 40 cal, 32auto, 357 and a few more.
When I got home my wife said NO MORE ammo.
I've been cut off.

I just bought 4 boxes of 380 HP ammo for my Wife's carry pistol. At a fair but not great price at an Academy Sports store.

And a PTG firing pin, firing pin spring and recoil lug for a future build just came in the mail. Now I'm waiting my turn at the machine shop!

Won a Safariland 40% off "VIP" promo card from a match prize table and ordered a new rifle case, a couple of speed loaders, and some speed loader holders for my L frame.

Pretty excited about it.

With the reloading-ammo supply BS still going on, I got a 6'6" medium heavy rod and an old Penn Peerless #9 reel. Fixed up a sliding 1oz sinker and a 3/0 circle hook. Looks like a fair catfish rig.

Leupold SX-2 Alpine HD spotting scope.

I finally got tired of trying to make out those tiny little holes that .22 and .223 caliber bullets make in paper targets using ordinary binoculars at 100 yds and beyond.

I ran across one pound of H4895 powder yesterday so I brought it home.

More 12 ga shotgun shells

Year membership to DNR range. Brand new multimillion range. $24.

Just under an hour away to.

Some 7.62x39 and 9 mil ammo. Thinking about picking up a couple of ammo boxes at Harbor Freight.
