Where are you finding SPP brass in 10mm?

 

[xdmikey]

This week has been 9mm loading time. about 400 rounds, single staged using my Redding turret.

Lots of experimentation: powdering cases in loading blocks, getting brass out of sequence paying attention to loading blocks...

I am settled in with: pime then bell and put in block, after filling blocks put case(from block)under powder drop tube, powder then seat boolit and drop into can.

Yes, I have an LNL press but I'm thinking i should do a better job of belling the case when I'm using powder coated boolits as opposed to Berry's.

I just don't want to scrape off a bunch of PC.

Sorted some brass last night. Separating the military brass from the 223. Until I get one of those case tools I’m not reaming any more military brass.

I processed 1500 pieces of crimped military 5.56X45 brass.

I used this ---> RCBS Primer Pocket Uniformer

Mounted to this ---> Frankford Arsenal Platinum Case Prep Center

After I ran them all through this ---> RCBS Swage Kit

If I ever plan on doing so many again, I will use the Lee accessory for the APP. I did not own my APP yet when I processed the previous batch.

Lee Precision APP Swage Kit

Loaded up some 6.5 Grendel for ladder test with a new (to me) projectile. 108 gn Lapua scenars. Used Ramshot Tac in .3 gn increments near max book. I’m curious to see how they group and if they do well what they’ll do at 300-500 yds

 

[single stack]

Loaded 7 boxes of 28 gauge AA’s.
5 with #8 shot and 2 with #9 shot.

Got some .45 acp brass tumbling right now. Going to re-set my does & load some up tonight when I get home.

Right now the grandkids come first.

some manufacturers switched to small pistol primers I have about 250 cases of small pistol primed and I keep on reloading them until I get them out of circulation.on the 3rd loading now.

Rut Roe...the Square Deal had 2 boo boos out of about the last 125 loads

I'm in the shop today since it's raining..good day to run a few 38s

Made a batch of .45 acp. Used a Hornady 230 gn fmj. It should poke a few holes.

Where did you get them? I’m looking for some small rifle primer 6.5 cases since my LRP supply is getting low.

Found LR cases at Cabelas.

Later found these available too. Came in a plastic case. Also LR.

I’m sticking with LP cases. They are everywhere and my groups were under 1/2”.

Nobody has the SP cases. I looked for an hour.

Thanks, looking them up now. I have a ton of once fired Hornady brass which takes large rifle primers. But I only have about 700 large rifle primers left, which will be fine if I cut down on my shooting (hate to even think about that!) But I have a couple thousand small rifle primers, and .223 is the only thing I use them for, and I really haven’t shot that much since this whole reloading drought started.

Nice packaging! If you removing the upper padding will the box accomodate loaded rounds?

 

[xdmikey]

I know that some of the manufacturers are going SPP in 45acp and 10mm but does anyone see that happening with 762(only LRP I use)? Probably not in WinMag-type big bore rifles.
