What did you do in the reloading room today?

[trixter]

I am all caught up on reloading so I have been tying up fishing lures.

I know: shame on me. lol

Rigged up a cheap, reliable trickle scale with old stuff lying around.

I started removing primer crimps on brass. I had run those through Lee universal depriming die early this week. It's going to take awhile to work through a cat litter bucket 3/4 full that is a buddies. A mix of US arsenal head stamps DEN 42, TW 43 & 54, U 43, SL 53, LC 53 and DM 42.

Envious of all the cold-hardy "real men" on this site, I bought 1/2" aluminum rod with plans to turn from it a bullet-pusher (missing front end of mag tube spring) for an old Rem I wish to shoot, on my Unimat lathe -- to, after making my way to the lathe, looked at wall-mounted thermometer -- 40*F/4.44*C -- cussed a few times under my breath -- and came back upstairs. A tad toooo cold for me; at 74 (allmost 75) -- me thinks I may be turning into a bigger wimp than I had been... (2nd -- after the fact thought -- if I plugged in that electric heater...?...)
Spring will, they tell me, be coming...

After moving from Oregon to Georgia 11 years ago, I’m not nearly as cold tolerant as I used to be. On the hand, the hot humid summers don’t seem so bad 😂😂

More 9mm deprime and cleaning. I found two large coffee cans full I forgot about! I think they are breeding and multiplying

Decaped and cleaned another 800 223. Making a dent in my range brass. Want to be able to measure enough to load with out having to trim.

Washed and sorted and dried 1/3 bucket of range brass all this from one visit to the range in the snow. 850 223s. Almost that many 9s few hundred 10s and other pistol stuff. Thanks to Berry for the brass separator. Going to prep. The 223s to boost my preped up to about 2500. Just need more power.

[John Guedry]

Been looking for the powder I misplaced/lost since our move. It'll turn up sooner or later.

[Bentstick]

Nothing went out to a Local lake and Augered some holes in the Ice, killed a few minnows and caught a few dinners of Splake, which was supper tonight.

Swaged the cores in 200 22rf jackets. Point forming next.

THIS is a great idea. I can use the same concept to stand up my alox lubed bullets.

Scored a deal the other day. A local guy was bringing some reloading gear he didn't use anymore. I spied this RCBS powder measure on the consignment table at the LGS. $75 bucks with stand. Just the measure goes for $150 and the stand another $30. I been looking for one of these for a couple year but choked on the price.
I normally use a Lee measure but it does not handle flake very well at all. so I keep it for stick type powders. This RCBS should handle all types.
Then I scored a lb. of unopened BL-C2 powder for $30 bucks.
I cleaned it all up and tested it with a flake powder this morning. Bang on.

I made a little 12 x15" board and bolted it to it. Glued a piece of corner molding to the edge to keep the stray bits in the tray. I verathaned it for a smooth finish
I deliberately left the one corner open to sweep the tray bits back into the jug. It didn't come with a dump tube so I found a copper 1/4' NPT nipple that fit.
