What did you do in the reloading room today?

[rl69]

Have you shot them after they were fire formed?

what is your proses of converting the cases?

[taco650]

I don't know yet? I'm new to this caliber. I'm thinking that the 9 mm Luger isint sizing out enough? The next step is to see if the extra sizing step helps. If not see if the fire forming stops it?

I think the 9×18 cases have a little wider base than the 9×19.

Emptied the brass out the dehydrator, emptied the ss pin tumbler and put that new batch of clean brass into the dehydrator, re-filled the tumbler with 2,000 round of .40 S&W brass, sorted out a bunch of cleaned brass and put it away into storage boxes ... and then went and took a nap!

2,000rds of brass? You using a cement mixer?

Nah, just .40 S&W pistol brass so it filled the tumbler ... I used the large Frankford Arsenal ss pin tumbler ...

I didn't think you could get that many in there at one time.

Turned some R-P, 30-06 brass into 8 X 56 Mannlicher/Schoenauer, loaded them with 24 grs. of IMR-4227 under a 200 gr. Accurate Mold, gas checked bullet and fireformed them in my 1908 M/S. Such a delightful little rifle!!

Today was a casting day. Cast with a new to me H&G 503-429 mold. Probably cast about 1000. This mold is a joy to cast with!

[labradigger1]

After work loaded 50 44 mag ratshot. 2 gas checks and #12 shot, 4.7 grains bullseye.

[Loudy13]

Finished sizing every piece of .243 brass in the house, well one box of 50 left but those are the daughters rounds and she has to work those up after she shoots the last 10 or so.

Made 50 cat sneeze loads using the ladder method starting at 3.5 grains then 3.8, 4.1, 4.4, 4.7, 5.0, 5.3, 5.6, 5.9 and 6.2. I used the powder coated Lee TL314-90-SWC.

[44deerslayer]

Casted 2k 44 429421

[trixter]

Applied gas checks to a bunch of 224 cast boolits, boy what an intense chore.

[Tom W.]

I hobbled over and looked for the first time since my surgery. I didn't recognize the bench, as prior to the surgery I had put boolits and brass on the bench so I could have components handy with no strain. I didn't know that I cleaned it up so well !

[62chevy]

Good to see you are ready to reload Tom. That sure is better than flat on your back. Keep the good news coming.

[bjordan]

I loaded 50 .44 mag lead handloads for future Wild Bunch matches. These were loaded on the old Chucker. Before that, I loaded 250 .45 ACP rounds for Wild Bunch on a Dillon. Tonight was another box of #8 shotshells with shot I made.
