Neither do I, but off the top of my head I can think of revolvers, semis, and carbines chambered in 38/357, 45ACP, and 9x19.

Quality stuff? I've never reloaded lead before from anyone. Anything specifically I should be aware of ?

Anything with an animal on the package or M67 worked really well for me. The SKS was never really hard to strip and clean so I don't worry about the mess.

Just was there on 4 wheels. The road is open, plenty of parking at the summit, and a great drive up through western MA.

I did mine several years ago and took the combination course. The combination allows you boat and PWC qualification, whereas the boating safety is just boating.

Are you doing raised beds or traditional planting? I'm sick of looking at a backyard full of grass and considering different options for the next planting season.

That's the unfortunate truth: there are no more 'safe' States anymore, just ones where the pushing back is easier, the anti-rights crowd has less of an influence, the business climate is more conducive to productivity and success, and the cost of living is lower. To directly answer your question, wo...

I shot one a few times but the Max loads weren't that much hotter than a good 357Mag load. The brass is hard to come by, factory ammo is virtually non-existent, and the only positive is that you can shoot 357Mag and 38Spc out of it. The brass looks like a longer 38/357 case. It might be good for rev...

What's the scale on the 230?
You even got the Sikorsky N-number right.

From discussions I've had with others who were considering the same, the town's planning and zoning is usually where the process grinds to a halt.

By '+1' I'm assuming you mean one round chambered vs a capacity increase accessory. If that's the case, yes 10+1 is fine as the new law only covers magazine capacity and not the round you have chambered.
