My wife loves those Beemer wagons. I just can't afford one.

You would be surprised the low cost to get in the door of a 10+ yr old 5 series wagon or not. Its keeping them on the road after everyone has neglected them due to maintenance cost that hurts the wallet. A nice 5 series Estate with the V8 is around 10k. But yeah they are awesome rides that don't handle like a 5-6k pound car should.

Congrats on a perfect car gun! I've had two of them for years and keep one in each car. Rather than the stinky powder option you are using, you might try S&B ammo. I get it frequently from the ammotogo website and it works great and is MUCH cleaner.

Hornady HP's are scarce as hen's teeth right now, and expensive if you can find any.

Scored some in 9x18 Makarov for the car heater. :anamatedbanana
