This quick tip from Brownells demonstrates an efficient method for handloaders to manage ammunition load data. Instead of using adhesive labels that are difficult to change, the presenter suggests writing directly onto plastic ammo boxes with a marker. When load information needs updating, hand sanitizer is used to easily remove the old markings, allowing for new data to be written. This technique simplifies the process of tracking different loads and avoids the clutter of old labels.
This video from Brownells Gun Techs showcases a mint condition Colt Anaconda revolver found at Rock Island Auction Company. The Anaconda, a large-frame double-action revolver designed for the .44 Magnum cartridge, is discussed in detail, including its design influences (similar to the Python externally, but with internal differences akin to the King Cobra or Trooper), its all-stainless steel construction with a rare bright polish finish, and its market introduction in 1990 amidst the rise of semi-automatic pistols. The video notes the Anaconda's high production cost and eventual discontinuation around 2002, making this particular example a valuable addition to a firearm collection.
