Well I'm on a roll!

I wish it was a good one but it aint!

Is there one of you out there who has a fat bald headed voo-doo doll dressed in bib overalls who's stickin pins in it???

PLEASE STOP!!!!!

This time I got the amount of water right but put WAY too much grit in!I must have had a memory bank shut down and added the grit at least twice or more!!!

HELP!!!! :help:

This used to be second nature to me and now I don't know what the heck is going on here?

?

To beat all I have another load roughing in the same size barrel right next to this one (a double 6lb Lortone) which is turning out perfect! lol I tend to both loads at the same time too!

Yee Haw,,,,Go get-um Tom!! lol

So without further ado and for sure without a drum roll here they are,,,,

Even with the grit mix up it doesn't seem to have hurt them much! Keep up the good work! Fran

They look good to me! Chuck
