Nice day at the range emptying a bit of brass. After firing up the smoker I resized the 38-55 and 30-06 brass. Let the U/S cleaner do it's thing and now they're drying in the loading room. Have a deadline coming up fast so the -06 brass will be loaded by this weekend, still trying to figure out the one last tweak for this load before loading up a few rounds and sending the rifle & ammo south.

Some of my favorite recipes start out with a handful of depleted counterbalance devices.
100 oz mug? In some locales you have to post "No Lifeguard on Duty" signs around that thing!Originally Posted by flyingmonkey35

Found a SOWW on the floor of the reloading room/garage and wondered for a few minutes how I missed it the last time I smelted a batch of them. However, that wondering didn't last too long because I realized if fell off the rear tire of my motorcycle so decided to save it and get it glued back on. Oh well.
I believe I would stop by the tire shop and get a new one...rather than glue that on back on.
Be bad to get on the road and have that one come off again and have to ride it with an unbalanced tire until you could get home.
Reloaded the 20 308 cases I emptied at the range yesterday ,would have been more but had a range officers meeting after I'd spent the morning as range officer.only had an hour to shoot in.
Emptied and restarted my giant HF tumbler. One more K45 ACP to go.
Information not shared. is wasted.
finally ran out of 148gr wadcutters! Time to swap the LnL over to 380 shell plate and dies and give it a run for awhile. Never thought I'd get them all loaded, but slow and steady makes good progress.

Thanks Yall!
melted down this summers haul of pewter, came out to 22.5 lbs. Swapped 7.5 lbs. of it and 5# of cerro bend ingots for half the cost of a Zouave rifled musket.
Scrap.... because all the really pithy and emphatic four letter words were taken and we had to describe this source of casting material somehow so we added an "S" to what non casters and wives call what we collect.
Kind of hard to claim to love America while one is hating half the Americans that disagree with you. One nation indivisible requires work.

Nothing. Worked on winterizing the boat, getting house ready for kids moving in with us for a time until they get settled. The 5 yo grandson wasn't here for 30 mins when he asks when are we going to make some bullets!

Nice looking bench.
Looks pretty beefy. What is the top made of?
Yesterday I ss pin tumbled a batch of brass and then tossed them in the dehydrator to dry out. Should be down in the reloading room sorting them today, but we have a big family dinner tonight at my step-daughter's place and I'm cooking a couple of dishes to bring with us ... that and a big, double batch of buttermilk biscuits ... then it's back to the reloading room tomorrow!
I may have passed my "Best Before" date, but I haven't reached my "Expiry" date!
I just laminated 2x4's in small sections (10 inches) and ran them through a planer... Then glued sections together for correct width... Smoothed it all with a belt sander...
I´m smelt today 30 kg of range scrap with 5 kg of monotype.
A 6 to 1 alloy.
Greetings from España.
Took a couple of new moulds for a run . I seem to be developing a 35 and 45 cal addiction.

I wonder if that 88 gr will make Mach 2 in a 357.

Brother I'm going to be Pythagerus , DiVinci , and Atlas all rolled into one soon .
Sorted cleaned brass, annealed it, waiting for it to cool so that I can re-sort it, sorted out some junk ammo to tear down for components. A good day, but calling it quits soon ...

Resized some 45-70s earlier. Getting ready to charge them with 3031 and top them off with some 420gr powdercoated bullets.
