Looks like it's doing a good job
Put a batch of Hardcast 303 brit 185gr bullets in some LLA to be sized and gas checked.
Tore down a bunch of rifle rounds given to me by a friend. Recycle the brass, primers, and bullets. Powder for fertilizer.
Prepped a batch of Win 223 brass for loading, got tired and needed coffee.
Loaded up ladder loads to test my favorite boolit MP-40-160-HP theses are powder coated and for the first time sized to.401 been sizing all others.402. They seemed to shoot the same as the 402s but easier to load and more likely to go into battery every time. Haven’t compared velocity yet. More testing required.
Still pulling the lever on 6.5 Grendel...... realized I had another 250 pieces of brass. At this moment, I'm unsure if I am glad.

Cast 600 plus ACC 125 gr bullets for my 9mm and .38 Special. Loaded 20 for my 9mm with small rifle primers to see if they would maybe work. 4,2 grains of CFE. That CFE powder goes through the Redding measure better than any other small ball type powder that I have tried.

Hiding from the wife. Everything has gone wrong today and she is not making it any better so before I put my foot in my mouth I have locked myself in the reloading room. Guess I will start cleaning the bench. Have a happy turkey day guys who knows how many more we have left.
Finished 2 dozen boxes of sporting clays loads and killed off the last of my 700x. Dug out ~180 375 H&H's that need to be disassembled and the components recycled. Shipped 350 Legend 6.5x54 brass and some 30 caliber bullets.
And busted my Mark II at the plate shoot this morning. Went from a semi-auto to an occasional single shot. Thanksgiving day project to figure out what be busted.
A semi-productive day.
Had 52 srp left so I loaded some 223. Didn't feel like opening the next brick.
Reset my password for the forum. Pulled out the pro melt 2 to figure out the drip issue I had a couple years ago and started taking inventory of my stuff. Running a trucking company for the last couple years didn’t leave anytime to shoot or reload or cast or enjoy life. New job fixed that and now back to what I enjoy.
Prepped 200 more 32 acp cases to shoot out of my Walther PP.
Sorted through my 70-90 year old milsurp 30-06 brass that I use for cast bullets and found three with small neck cracks.
They got set aside to become 7.65 Argentines.
The rest I loaded with Lee 170 F and Lee 200R over 3031 and 4227 respectively.

I cast up 17 lb of 359 hammers with the deepest hollow point pins tonight.
Loaded up around 300 rds of the MP-40-160-HP PC sized to.401 7.3 gr. Very accurate load at about 1150 ‘/sec. Trying to use up all my 10mm brass and CFE Pistol powder. Ending up trying my RCBS Little Dandy to get accurate meatering with the low volume of powder left. Seems to be working fine.
Today I will deprime about 50 .284 Win cases and wet tumble with about 30 others. I don't even own a .284 I got these cases and dies in a lot I bid on in an auction.
Prepped some 243 brass to load for a pumpkin hunt, put them in the garage, in the walnut media to clean. Started sizing some 303 brit and found this case and thought.... Maybe just one more time.

Want to add this picture of the little dandy on the Hornaday AP Progressive press. Don’t forget to turn the crank.
