    Put some 7x30 waters cases in the Tumbler. Just received some brass in the mail today. Made a trade with someone who was looking for 25-20 brass. I had no need for it.

    So in trade , I told him I could use 30-30 brass to make into 7X30. So he sent me 30-30 along with some 7x30 he happened to have. Probably the only original 7x30 I have.

    Just dipping my toes into reloading starting with 45acp, I’ve already acquired a Classic Lee Loader and got my first large pistol primers yesterday at academy in Waco.

    I’ve got so much to learn been reading reloading books it’s like Greek arithmetic to me. Still trying to decide on the rest of my components choice.

    If you can lay your hands on an old Speer or Lyman reloading guide they were written for guys with -0- understanding of the process, They even cover acronyms and reloading vernacular

    Man, I havent done much since before summer but in the last week I sorted a bunch of brass I've been putting off. I cast 250 10mm bullets and powder coated them. I sized 50 cases from 30.06 down to 7.7jap and loaded a couple test rounds. Loaded 8 different charges for the 450 bushmaster to test feeding issues with a new bullet. Sized a bunch of 10mm brass and a bunch of 308s I had laying around.

    Today I made it to the range to test the 7.7jap and they're good to go.

    I tested the 450bm but they're still not feeding. Not sure if the h2 buffer is too heavy to feed the next round.

    Getting ready to gear up for vacation time at Christmas to load some buckshot and some 223. And, if I get lucky maybe I'll find some lpp to load up the 10mm.
