I believe your units are mistaken; I was always taught the f-ton was metric and is properly expressed as:

"Metric f—- ton."

This is in distinct to the Rat CH, which is widely known to be a non-metric, standard measurement.

These were both units I learned as a wee tike in the 70s from my uncle, who was in fact an aeronautical engineer and USAF pilot. However, the units tended to be used in relationship to maintenance on European motorcycles (Triumph, etc.) in frustration.

haha. Updated to reflect accurately. Thank you.

LoL, props to you. I love a person with a sense of humor.

Let's just hope no one figures out what the engineering "CH" unit is, and bans the thread. My bad.

Honestly though, I have so much unloaded .45acp else I'd be into this deal.

In compensation for disturbing your thread, I'll add this for beginning reloaders:

This style bullet will work fine in any .45. You load the meplat of the SWC to a length that replicates the curve on a ball round. You can load these to work with GI magazines, narrow-mouth barrels, and even match sized chambers with a little effort and a full-length resizing die in the last station on your press. Don't pass by this deal just because you don't think your gun will feed them. Up your reloading game.

I always thought it was Red C. Hair.

 

[sojerguy]

What do you know about these bullets? How long have you had them, where did they come from. manufacturer etc. Thanks

I always thought it was Red C. Hair.

Thought that was for measuring very small measurements.

 

[thebigbaby]

@sojerguy not much. A week. My family. I do not know manufacturer.

They were in bags of I think of 500 (and some were loose), so I assume they were purchased from a manufacturer initially.

Yep, but the smallest standard of measure starts with a rat, not a human.

lol, you people got this and it's funny to find people as bent. GLWS!

That does describe many of us.

If we can churn the thread enough to sell his bullets and further the legend of the RCH, we have in fact done good work all around.

sir respectfully it starts with a frog's

You have just taken this to a new level.

Kudos to you, sir.

 

[thebigbaby]

I'm seriously confused. I don't get the verbiage. Are you guys low key making fun of me for asking price or quality? Or is this all just fun?

I feel like it might be like the arkaboss threads. No disrespect to him btw, he's a thoughtful and curious gentlemen and I've had nothing but great interactions with him. But folks don't dig his forum posts for some reason. I have to give it to him for creativity and sharing his thoughts. If his ffl would give me deals like his last post I read, I wouldn't share it with anyone.

 

[drstrangelove]

All fun

 

[Oro]

LoL, all fun (and good fun). I sent you a pm and my email. You started the fun with the "f-ton" title. So it's all fun from your smart start, not at your expense.

We all thank you and are not belittling you; sorry if that was implied as it was not intended by me or the other participants, @saxon @drstrangelove etc.

 

[thebigbaby]

Was not implied just confused. I can be at your expenses. Thank you @Oro I sent you an email. Hopefully I can join the shenanigans in the future.

Got your pm and email, all good fun on a Friday night. Good forum w/good people.
