What did you do in the reloading room today?

[Mal Paso]

I got 300 44 Mag loaded. 20g of 2400 with a Federal primer and the late #503. Only dropped one case so I'm getting better. More practice required. LOL

[MOA]

Finished my run of 38/357 boolits. 54 pounds of alloy. Just under 2400 boolits. Now I gotta start back on the 9's.

I finished the 24 GPC brass die formed, primed, powdered and 80gr bullets loaded for fire forming, resized 20 rounds of fire formed brass and uniformed the pockets. 100 pieces of 22-250 AI brass neck sized, I used my old system with powder graphite and lead shot on half then tried imperial wax on the other half, pockets uniformed.
while resting loaded two boxes of 28 Ga shot shells.

I have three 6mms I am testing for an ATN Thor 4 thermal mounting.

Not my reloading room - but headed to a buddy's house to finish up 30,000 9mm, 20,000 5.56 and 15,000 7.62 NATO. We finished casting the boolits almost 6 mo ago from a large amount of lead I procured, purchased primers for the project 3 years ago. Looking forward to watching our boys get these emptied out again!!

Cranked out 1500 9mm 147 grain boolits of my 2000 count target. Been very windy all last week so only about 4 hour casting time a day.




I finished up my38/357 casting session last Thursday with just under 2400 boolits. 54 pounds of alloy. Could hardly pick up the ammo can.

Those are Rotometals 3-4% Antimony Lead Alloy. I added a fat 1% Tin.

Finished the 9mm casting session. Tub is 10x6x3 and weighs 34 pounds. Approximately 2500 castings. Guess it's time to get the brass prepped.

I finished a small batch of 44-40 and I'm starting a batch of .41 magnum. Both are loaded with 9grs of Unique. And benched the Revelation .22 rifle with old Federal Lightning ammo. A decent group for Iron sights at 40 yards but 10" high.....sights are bottomed out.....time to scope it!

Bit the bullet today and Bought a 5 gallon bucket of wheel weights at the local tire shop. Looked at the top of the bucket hope in I Saw about 90% lead maybe more. They said it was an old bucket and maybe had more land than the newer buckets. And they said the last shipment of wheel weights were all zinc and steel so it won’t be long before all the lead wheel weights are gone. Haven’t weighed it but more than 100lbs. $80. Plus tax. Broke my heart paying that much.

I cast another 600 38-200 Penta Hollowpoints. Had trouble finding the groove, too cold and those boolits do not want to leave the mold. Went to 710F and had a very good run.

Loaded my last 9 free 350L cases with A11FS and a Magnum primer under a 38-200 hoping to tighten up the Extreme Spread.

Running 45 acp mold after finishing 2,400 38/357 boolits and 2,500 9mm boolits. Hope to get a few thousand 45's finished within the next few days.

I have been wanting to try ladle casting. The "Brown Santa Clause" dropped off my new Lyman Big Dipper and ladles on Friday and I spent the day messing with it today. Ran about 40lbs. of pretty .361" boolits for my 358 Winchester today. I just may be putting up the o'le bottom pour pot!!!
