What did you do in the reloading room today?

[captaint]

So, not exactly in the reloading room, however, out back I poured up 19+ lbs of NOE 135 gr RNFP's. The calculator says it totaled 1,011 boolits. That ought to hold me for a little while !! Love those Al Nelson molds..... Forgot to mention - 9mm they were..

[quail4jake]

Day 2 alloy study...Sb alloys hardening as expected, all diameters unchanged...stay tuned!

[Tom W.]

More puttering. I loaded another box of 9mm, this time with Green Dot, and just five rounds of 30-06 AI with165 gr Gamekings and H380 iirc.

[nitroviking]

Sorted, trimmed, prepped and swaged the primer crimps on a few hundred .223 cases. Thanks to the case prep center and swager, otherwise I don't think I would even load rifle anymore... Arthritis is a cruel mistress



Oh, and spent way to much time on C.B...

[Greg S]

Dropped 100 Lyman 452651s and 75 or so Lee 475 325wfn. Checked and sized them all.

[centershot]

Put together a hundred rounds of 12 gauge round ball loads for deer season (and practice!) and made up some Bruce B softpoints for my .375 Winchester. I usually hunt with the rifle but on those rainy/snowy/wet/sloppy days I prefer to take the shotgun, no optics to mess with and shots are generally inside 30 yards.

[TXGunNut]

Nothing! It's hunting season so I went in there to get some hunting ammo for a sight-in session. Found about half of my missing 45acp ammo. Hunting ammo performed very well. I remembered why I don't enjoy long plinking sessions with my Marlin 45-70's and RD hunting ammo. These rifles and boolits seem to enjoy ammo loaded very close to the edge of where I no longer enjoy touching them off, lol. Seems I'm a glutton for punishment, decided I better sight in one of my 35 Whelen rifles for a bad weather gun.

[blikseme300]

Assembled another 50 loads of 458WM. Tomorrow I'll do some field position shooting practice in preparation of the hunting season. Was over 90* here today and after a tiring week was not in the right frame of mind to go and shoot.

[Soundguy]

What are you hunting with 458 winnags?

[TXGunNut]

Looks like I was mistaken, got to spend some quality time in the loading room after all. Too windy to verify scope settings after the fog cleared so I loaded 30 38-55 hunting loads and 50 32WCF plinking loads. That session wrapped up those two projects; not sure what's left but thinking I need to continue my 32WS, 30US, 300Sav and 35Rem projects next time I get bored, lol.

Went through the cycle of loading 25 12ga shot shells while waiting for the Lee pot to heat up then can a pot full to the rim of 9mm using a Magma Engineering 124gn and a Lee 356-125 2R mold. I figure if I keep to this every so often I will be in good shape come spring.

Day 3 of the alloy study, added a 1% Sn arm of the trial. Cast .32 WS 165 gr boolits in an original winchester mold, difficult to use but really neat to use winchester factory mold boolits in my 1894 SRC from 1926!

[Grmps]

I love reloading BUT sometimes forming cases can get a little old. I'm in the process of converting a bunch of 223 to 300 AAC BO.
Got them all rough cut, de-primed, wet tumbled, lubed, formed. I have 1 blue tub left to trim to length and de-bur. Next, I have a large batch of 9x19 to 9x18.

[15meter]

Loaded 2 boxes 470 N.E. Clean the benches up(some).

Do you have a thread about your study or are you going to wait to post your conclusions? My shooting buddy has a very similar Winchester mould and loading tool, both look like new. Very good workmanship.

[lightman]

Sorted and stored away a bunch of brass. Added a few cartridges to my collection and updated my list.

[jdfoxinc]

Inspected and weighed the .224 52 gr bullets and started seting hornady gas checks. These pills are so small thatmy fingers cover them when I'm attempting to line the up with the seating die and top punch. Split the Nose on 3 bullets that Wernt aligned.

[KrakenFan69]

Cast another 1,000 9mm and 400 .357 mag projectiles today. Also did my 25 12ga shot shells while the pot warmed up again. I had better start Hi-Tek coating some of these soon.

[Jal5]

Started loading my practice round in 9mm. Need to load about 500 total so it will be in several stages

[Tom W.]

I was going to cast some 310 gr. Lee boolits but rooted around a bit and found some, so I sized and lubed and put gas checks on a few and loaded up my remaining .44 mag brass with 10.5 gr of True Blue. I'm gettingto like that powder.......
