I have my good days and bad days, mostly bad days. Kinda like an oscilloscope. Sunday we tried to go to the casino in Wetumpka, we got as far as Tallasee and I just couldn't go on. We tried again Monday and all was well. Today I was feeling yucky again. Lori told me that chemotherapy would get worse with each infusion, and she is right as usual. She did figure that I may be able to be finished by sometime in October. I can't imagine how bad I'll be feeling by then. God will give me what I need to get through this. That does not mean that I like it...

Good to hear you have Faith.
Prayers with you.

I just finished a run of 380 XTP's and now I am setting up the press for a big run of 223 w 55gr lead, and powder coated.
-
I took a UPS box down to the cave and turned out the lights I had left on. I had tripped yesterday and bruse my back sides and forearm. The trip down to the cave with the heavy box was enough.
Got to have a reason to try again tomorrow.
If it doesn't rain I have several gals of 5.56 ready to acid tumble.

Attachment 198085Attachment 198086Attachment 198087Attachment 198088I loaded some of my first run powder coated 45acps on my newly modded press. The press used the inline fab reverse rotation case eject setup. Which is now working flawlessly. I made a poor boy boolit and case holder.this allows old fingers to grab either quickly and in the right posistion .it has eliminated most all fumbling around getting cases or boolits to the press properly. It holds about 35 cases and 40 lscw. When i refill the tubes i check for small primer cases or defective boolits. I saw this on tailgunners you tube vid about five years ago.

Mostly housekeeping duty. Just don't know how my room gets so messy! I've been reorganizing my ammo and brass storage. Pulled some bullets from some ammo that I no longer have guns for. Been casting about once a week. Recently redid my master list of guns. Recently redid my master list of bullet molds. Working on a master list of cases, primers, powder and bullets.
-
Just separated the boolits I cast the other day. I had less than thirty rejects, and some of them would have been ok to load, but at times I'm anal.....
The remainder filled a box that some .480 brass came in several years ago. Now to empty some .357 brass.

I cast some 7/8 lee slugs and 690 round balls

Made an ersatz scope mount for an SKS from a Win 94 side mount, cleaned"on" the Peabody , loaded 100 .38 specials with 3.5 grs Red Dot and Hornady 158 lead HP, shot some aerosol cans to throw them in the trash, checked zero on my AR .300 BO(dead-on), traded a revolver for a bolt action Browning.
-
Polished and sorted 18# of brass. And did some dog grooming, the grooming table is down by the reloading bench and she needed some maintenance and made the mistake of coming down to the cool of the basement.

Cleaned up the mess after running a bunch of 223 55gr FMJBT, starting to get set up to load Lee C 225-55-RF that I have powder coated, some with Harbor Freight red and some with Ford light blue. then work up loads without gas checks for plinking with my Mossberg 223 bolt gun.
-
Sized, powder coated and then final size 1500 boolits.

NOE 432 282 WFN, Powdercoated in clear, WLPP, 21.2 H110. This is a very consistent mold +/- 1 grain by a rookie caster. This load is on the bottom edge of the load range for this powder. Want to test one more time before I go into a batch reload. I have fired 25-30 rounds and none have flashed on me. I have found H110 to be very accurate on the bottom end of the range right as the flash goes away then work until the accuracy starts to wander. This is a legitimate 2 inch 100 yard load.

Just sized trimmed cleaned 45 308 cases .if the cases ain't very dirty I just wipe cases as they are spinning in my drill with a bit of cloth that's got a bit of white spirit on it .mineral spirit in USA takes off carbon and case lube a treat.

Swaged some more 40 S&W to .430 for my Ruger carbine. On top of some 296 makes the gong go nuts. Did get out back to shot my new to me 40S&W rifle, using my cast 180 HP boolits it will shot into an old propane tank.
