    Finally got the saw for cutting some 300blk.

    So far I've cut, tumbled, sized, trimmed about 400 cases. I need a WFT in a bad way.

    What saw did you go with? I've seen a lot of guys make a wood jig and use the Harbor Freight chop saw.

    Most of mine is 556 Lake City brass that was cut down, but I bought it already chopped and formed.

    First test at nickel plating last night was a fail. Impure nickel and too high voltage. Going to test a copper plate out today. Waiting on more pure nickel

    Looked at the shotgun shell reloading press.
    It didn't see me, so I slipped off to the recliner.

    I ordered some .300 BO brass pull down cartridges from Rocky Mountain Reloading yesterday. It was primed already and cost $45 for 250 cases. It will be my first batch to try out.

    Loaded 30 rounds of .223, Sierra GameKing 65 gr.
    This particular load performed very well in ladder testing.
    Hope to hit the "proving grounds" soon.

    Today I got 1000 more HAP bullets from midsouth. Debating if I want to load 9mm, bed a stock, cast ingots, or plate brass. This means I'll likely.end up on the couch drinking a beer with the wife watching the latest Redbox find...

    Loaded up a couple of hundred rounds of .38's two days ago. Need to make sure my powder dump is clean and make about 100 .223's tonight. Ran out of patience last night with a lap full of brass trimmings from sizing the shells.
