    I only recently (about 1 1/2 now) picked up the hobby.
    I currently do 40 45 38/357 and 45LC. Have not moved to rifle yet although I will likely at some point.

    Finished breaking down 150ish 38spec rounds due to seeing an empty case as I was about to seat a bullet(after checking all three loading blocks).

    Loading them again will be quicker since I got a Redding pistol insert for my 3BR dispenser.

    I started with 300blk. Now I’m set up for 300blk, 223rem, 308/7.62x51, 30-30, and 9mm. After 357 I’ll be setting up for 7mm weatherby and 7.62x39. Might possibly get into .380auto.

    Dropped by Academy today and found 2 boxes of the Hornady XTP 230 grain 45’s, so I decided to go ahead and load some up. Yesterday I found, and bought a lb of Hodgdon Superformance rifle powder.

    I just started bumping back shoulders on some commercially processed brass that didn't want to chamber. Lesson learned...case lengths and neck sizing were spot on but damn disappointing to pull 30 bullets, bump shoulders and reload. Should have mic'd em before.

    Ordered some 45-70 brass. Don't know why as the deal I had for the 45-70 JM Marlin fell through. Maybe someday.

    I have a box of 338 Spectre brass on my shelf in hopes that one day I'll find a barrel in stock to build one. Not crazy, just hopeful.

    Got 200 45-70 brass cases today from Starline. Stored away for future loading if I ever get around to getting a rifle. Can't beat Starline.

    I picked up a 1970’s Remington 742 in 30.06 last week, and finally got some high see through rings (iron sights actually look decent) and a scope mounted on it. Gonna go zero it tomorrow, so I decided to kill 2 birds with one stone. I’ve been wanting to test out some shooters world powder, so I loaded up 20 rounds to shoot after I get it sighted in.

    Set up the case kicker I got from Iline Fabrication 3-4 years ago. It works really well until I held onto the case too long and got a dent in my finger. No blood, just had a dent all day until I went to work on the boxwoods; ran out of time for the crepes before the rain came. Still got the dent, too.
