Today I threw a big bunch of mixed brass into the ultrasonic cleaner for a few hours. Went in grungy and came out gleaming. Rinsed it thoroughly, and drained it well. Now it is all spread out on a drying sheet. With our temps, it should be nice and dry in a couple of days and ready for loading.
Good evening,
Went to a gun show and found some new items. Put them away and cleaned my pistols for Bullseye on Monday. Went to stock my pistol box and “had” to load some 32 S&W Longs. All ready to now!!!

Put all my gun projects aside to load some .41 magnum (Special level) because the only loaded rounds I have for it are 210 XTP/ LilGun screamers......
NICE!

PC does look nice but I can't get deal with the hassle compared to HI-Tek. I know it's not much harder but I like the finished look of hi-tek too.
I also feel like hi-tek is better suited. PC melts with heat. just my opinion though and you know what they say about opinions.
You have some damn fine looking bullets there.
What are you shooting them in?
They are shot through a Thompson Contender 357 Bbl 6’’ sitting in Zero gravity chair like they shoot Lawn Steel in Florida.
How do you like the 95gr in 9mm. I use the exclusively in my 9mm carbines and love them.
Got it!
Not in the loading room but moved all my lead and alloy from the garage to my casting shed.
2200 lbs of lead doesn't look like much until you carry it up a flight of stairs.

Can’t wait for it to cool off for real so I can fire up my melting pot and pc oven.
Cleaned about 1000 9mm brass. Loaded 2000 9mm with 125gr tc. Coated and sized 10lb of 130gr rn.
Realised I need about 30kg more 9mm brass. And I'd like 10mm brass. And some .357mag. And and and.
prepped some 308 brass
...PC melts with heat...
Take a PC'd boolit and drop it in a 700 degree pot... You will find that the PC is around longer than the boolit.

Primed and neck sized 60 pieces of 7.62x54r brass; which I shot at last months military bolt gun match.
Washed and bleached out my ice tea pitcher.
Thing had stuff growing in it..... On the plus side, chances are good I'm immune to jungle rot now......
The guy I’ve been teaching to reload helped me finish packing the reloading room and a bunch more. He saved me from having to go back for another 1400 mile round trip.

Changed Lee loadmaster from 41mag to 357 have 750 empty brass cleaned. It's supposed to be hot here the rest of the week
Loaded 100 44 Mag Unique loads (mid range, around 1100 fps). Been a while since I loaded 44 mag - I missed it...
Tomorrow I need to load 100 44 Mag W296 loads (max range, around 1450 fps)... Been a while since I loaded/shot those too...

Made 100 44 magnum boomers today. I REALLY love shooting full house 44 mag. I did the math today and it turns out I pay about 18 cents per round to shoot my W296 loads. It also turns out that my Unique load is about 9 cents per round...
