Sized and loobed the aforementioned boolits.
Probably won't be able to get out to the shed tomorrow due to the himacane.....

Did I ever mention that I hate to trim brass?
Loaded 100 Unique 44 Mag loads... I really like this load. It's a 240 grain boolit under 9 grain of Unique.
I think of it as a medium load.
Attachment 228548
just put some 357mag cases in the tumble polisher
Finished sorting 9mm cases by headstamp.
Now on to loading up 130 DEWC in 38Sp. to use up that batch.
Then it is back to 150 9mm 120 & 124 TC for some plinking rounds.

I hope you mentioned the bullets were over the powder. Kinda hard to ignite a bullet.
Cast more 90 gr 9mm in my new Lyman mold.
QUIS CUSTODIET IPSOS CUSTODES?
I have a this hanging in there for the rest of the week so no casting until after Saturday. My stepson shot it yesterday and all the butchers are full and no room so it's in my shop. I don't mind because I know I will get some meat off it
Cut down 200 38 Special cases to 0.900" to load for competition. I'll be running the Lee 358-158 RF projectile for now. Might try some Lee 356-124 2R as well. Ran some of the 158's with 2.8 and 3 gn Clays and was moderately pleased.

Emptied the polisher, batch of 270 Winchester (future 8mm Mauser), 220 Swift and 6.5x54r m/s. Forgot them in the polisher for a second night of polishing. They be SHINEY!
Then went for the last soft water sail of the year before dropping the spar and getting the boat ready for the marina boys to do there lift/bottom wash put on trailer routine.
Great sail with the bonus of a B-17 cruising over head in the middle of the sail. It was heading east right down the middle of Lake Erie. Don't know where it was headed, I thought all the northern airshows were done for the year.
Great day
I finished my 100 rd batch of 45ACP with 200gr LSWC, then I switched over to reload some 9's. I need to start casting boolits soon running low.
Loaded 10 .40Cal with some Universal to try out, some 358158 RF Lee 357Mag over some Promo for practice and ordered a 32 H&R Mag mold, Lee Carbide Dies, Starline brass from Graf's clicking the link above!!!!!! (support the sponsors of this site) and other stuff for the pair of Ruger Single Six pistols I bought this week.
I'll measure the Single Six's when they arrive but since they were modified for Cowboy Action I think they will be cast boolit friendly. If not, I'll give DougGuy a shout. The 45LC Blackhawk Convertable he worked on for me shoot's cast like a boss

Sweet. A Sako is on the bucket list. My friend who hunt's all over the States swears by his.
It was 77 this morning in NC at 0300 when I got up. I miss the cold weather in October. I should have on a wool jacket and be hunting partridge with my 20g Benelli Super Montefeltro right about now.
