Thanks for the welcome to the forum and DRSS! That boar hunt sounds like a great way to spend the day. We have a family ranch in Dawson TX we do a lot of hog hunting on and really enjoy it. In fact I am dieing to get out to our ranch and give the S2 its first shot at meat on the hoof. I will certainly check out Rusty’s posts for further details on the official DRSS hunt.

As far as others opinions (be they positive or negative) of the S2 go; I read this (and a few other) sites thoroughly on the subject prior to my purchase so I do value the input gained. That said, I remember when I shot a Glock pistol for the first time. They had just come on the market and one of my Army buddies came running to the range with his new piece of ‘tactical Tupperware’. As a bunch of hardcore 1911 shooters we not really impressed with it. I remember asking him ‘where do you load the water into this squirt gun?’ when he handed it to me. Now years later (while I still love my 1911’s) I own bunch of Glocks of varying size and caliber. They are still as ugly as a homemade garden tool, have nothing on a Wilson in fit/finish, and will shoot accurately / reliably no matter what you feed them. What won me over was that while they were out of my paradigm for what was a proven combat handgun, their long term performance proved them to be every bit a solid and reliable design.

On the reloading front; I bought 200 rds of new Bell 470NE brass for $176 per 100. I called the good folks at www.masttechnology.com and they squared me away. I went out to www.midwayusa.com and looked up the appropriate dies and will get an order off to them soonest. I then sent off 2 emails to different addresses for Kynoch to see about getting a batch of the poly/foam case filler wads. Sadly, both emails bounced right back. So I’m at a bit of a loss for a source for those currently. Any thoughts, advice, or sources would be greatly appreciated… Thanks again!
