Howdy from Deep South Texas

[DoubleOBar]

I just found this board and thought I would like to join. The screen name/login is the old family cattle brand from the late 19th and early 20th Centuries in Coleman County. I am a sixth generation Texas raised in Brownsville and currently am retired and living very near Brownsville.

I am a lifetime shooter, hunter and reloader. My current interest are cast bullets shooting (rifles) and building rifles. I am looking forward to the discussions and information shared here.
