thank you guys for the comments. Sleek that is what got me with this rock also. I usually get just a few points and a bunch of gravel. I found a couple more pieces today to try for a couple more points. Ed

Sure like the color of the rock. You are really going after it with a nice hand full like that. Good job!

forgot to mention the shell case is a 243 just for size. I ended up with 20 points from that rock. I still need to get pic's of the last of them. thanks for looking. Ed
