Did I ever mention that I hate to trim brass?

Loaded 50 more 9mm rounds. And I found that I have to unload about 400 more in my Ruger. Oh well, it gives me something to do.....

I put some gas checks on my remaining RD boolits I cast the other day and "dipped" them per the old RD instructions. I managed to find some mineral spirits so I found my last bottle of LLA and filled the remaining space w/the mineral spirits, shook the daylights out of it and still had to take a screwdriver to mix it up well enough to use. I now have about 30 "dipped" boolits with a light brown sheen, and the noses are clean,except for one that I tipped over.... I wonder how long it will take for them to dry in the Alabama heat.......
I'll probably give them a coat of JPW in a day or so. It dries hard......and no leading.

Loaded up 100x194grgc boolits for my 357 mag .range tommorow.
Packed up my old Win 94 30-30 for a trip to Oregon to become my old Win 94 38-55!
Cast another 1500 Lee 401-175 TC for a total of 3,000 this week. Think I might bust out a few more tonight then start coating tomorrow. Tweaked the range after a match today for brass. Sitting on 10 gal of 9mm and 4 of .40 and 5 gal of .223 now. I have...issues.

Still casting .40's. Swung past the range and scored a 5 gal pail of range scrap. Free lead is the best lead.
Kraken Fan #69
Prepped 200 .223 cases.

Sorted and stored away a small batch of wheel weights that I scored. Decapped, sorted and started polishing some odd brass for a pending trade. Doing a little cleaning, which is an ongoing process!
Loaded up 20 x308 Lee boolits 150grfngc boolits over 18 gr 2400
Loaded 300 12 ga 7-1/2 skeet loads
Life is so much better with dogs!
Sameo sameo....Sized and lubed some 9mm boolits and put some JPW on the Ranch Dog boolits that I dipped into LLA two days ago. Now I have a good supply of .357 boolits for my pistols, and am casting, when the notion hits me, so I can fireform for my 30/30 A.I. when I get it back.

Sized and lubed some 452460 and 356402 boolits. Now I can reload my 9mm and 45acp with some of my favorites.
loaded 40 rounds of 300BO with CFE Black and 147gr FMj's (seconds from everglades), during the test rounds 4 out of the 6 rounds made a nice big hole in the center of the paper. Probably buy some more of those!
"Yes or no will almost always suffice as the answer"
I like my 147's on top of 17g of 4227... SPICY!!
