What did you do today in the world of reloading?

[Vaquero]

Cleaned, sorted, resized.
Working on priming some .223 now.

 

[Moonpie]

Used the new 310 tool to punch,neck size, bell 80 .45-70 cases.
That 310 tool works pretty darn good once you get the dies set correctly.

And primed a few hundred .223.

Didn't even have to get off of your horse did you?

Not exactly. Didn't have to get out of the Laz-E-Boy in front of the TV while doing brass prep.
I raff at you from my throne you silly smokeless powder person.

 

[Vaquero]

Emptied some brass.
Gathered them up.

That is my plan for tomorrow.

I fully expect to come home with more than I brought too.

You'll want to visit the pistol range.

Sized 66 44mag brass. Going to load up a couple test rounds for a friends lever gun. He bought some berrys bullets though and they say no more than 1250 fps. Im sure any rifle load is going to have to be quite light to stay under that number

Fiddling with seating depth.

I'm sitting here looking at the 8 shot shell reloaders I have accumulated over the years and wondering what to do with them. Some I have bought and some were given to me. I thought about putting them on E-Bay but I got over it.

 

[Moonpie]

Primed 80 .45-70 cases.
Punched out, lube soaked about 400 .45 felt wads for the cap&ball revolvers.
Cleaned rust off some old reloading tools.
Ordered a bullet mold/handles for the .45-70.

I did. Haven't loaded it yet though. I have the new stock bedded but i need to finish a couple clearance issues and then i might float the stock. After that ill load up some test loads and work from there.

Ive been working on my casting. Speaking of...

Cast a few hundred more 9mm yesterday. Getting pretty good at telling when the mold us too cold, lead too hot, and all those kinds of issues now.

Also, powder coated another batch with HF red and it came out great on the second coat. Left it in a minute or two too long though so it darkened slightly.

Started a batch with EW dark green. Got one coat done so far but it got to later to be out back making a racket... Gonna get a second coat on them today.

Prepped some old yet unfired brass for loading.


I got this at a gun show around 1990. Give or take a few years.

 

[vmax]

I sized and trimmed 150 223 cases
Then I deprimed another 200 and cleaned them tonight in my new wet tumbler
This is yesterday and today

 

[Dawico]

Sized all my 6.5 Creedmoor brass. Lots of prep to do yet before loading them up.

Just moved here so got the presses mounted and set up on the new workbench. I had the tool head for .45 packed with the press, so got that setup and made some .45 200gr lead target rounds. Mostly checking to make sure the press works well and the powder measure wasn't damaged. All good
