Loaded a batch of 350 Rigby Magnum cast boolit plinker loads.
Well, I can't seem to put the photo up, I cast about 15 pounds of 9mm boolits with my drip-o-matic and 6 cavity mold.

Hey! it finally worked!
Taught my son how to reload for his 22-250 from cleaning brass to seating projectiles. Now 2 of his friends are asking me to teach them and help them with what gear to buy too! Gotta keep passing it down.
Kraken Fan #69
Loaded up 7 rounds of .577 Snider. 530 grain boolit on top of 62.5 grains FFFG. Loaded 28 rounds .30-40 Krag. 165 grain projectile on top of 35.0 grains IMR 3031.
Polished about 200 9mm to load for a welcome home present for the Ruger P95 I bought. 105 Lee swc and some XTP 115.

Today will be a smelting day. And tomorrow. Hopefully this will finish up our last haul and I can get everything put up and out of my shop floor. I have a couple of "new to me" molds that I want to cast with but there have been 2 pallets of weights sitting in front of my work bench!
Sorted a big batch of recently wet tumbled brass and then annealed it all ...
Sizing 9mms. Size 50, go do something else, size 25 more, may take me a day.

100rds,45c 8.5 gns Unique 250 gn boolits
Smelting wheel weights again. Waiting on a couple of friends to arrive, then we hope to finish up today. Have been at it for a few weekends now and ready to find that last bucket! Its been a job but never really too bad. There have always been at least 2 of us working and this has made the job more enjoyable! Hope to post up some pictures once we get through.
Loading up more 100 more 45ACP & considering the fact I need to clean the reloading area again...
After several hrs of cleaning, I looked around to realize I still have a mess.
Where did all this STUFF come from?
Finally finished smelting wheel weights! Got all of the stuff stored away and the floor cleaned up.
Cleaned and sized some .357 and 9mm cases, then decided to load a box of 9mm w/ Green Dot....
Almost done sizing and lubing @600 Lee .452 230gr. RN boolits that I cast a few days ago. Then I'll switch the sizing die in my other sizer out for a .358, and lube and size a couple hundred Lachmiller .358 148gr. wadcutters.
Loaded 4 different loads for the 30-06. Used Unique and Red Dot. Trying some gas checked bullets this time with the Lyman 311041 mold.
I powder coated my first boolits. Turned out better than I thought. Would also appreciate any of you Old School Gentlemen's comments on my proposed boolit design in my other post. Good casting and shooting to all.
