Had some coffee, took the dogs out....it's 7am! I cut the grass on the shootin range yesterday though.
Well, just woke up today, but last night I taught a new friend how to reload. Now he has the bug, and said he's going to look online for his own reloading set to purchase.
One at a time...![]()

New Lee .314 sizer arrived so I sized up the 200 boolits I had made, dip lubed them all, then resized. Laid out in a container, labeled for size, weight, and gun intended. Small batch for some of you guys but the biggest I've done to date. Next I can start loading some of those same boolits to see how they do at the range.
Most likely going to be sitting on top of IMR 4895 probably about 27-30 grains. Tames the old russian girls down pretty well. Makes them almost civilized!
We'll yesterday I got called into work, then I converted 50 rounds of '06 into 8mm for my bro in law (he did most of the work). My wife and I went shooting, she shot 50 rounds of 223 to get sighted in for huntin season, 400 rounds of 38 special ammo and 75 rounds of 20 ga ammo, while my bro in law shot 50 rounds of 8mm Mauser with the lee 324-175 tumble lubed with 45-45-10 over 15 grn of 700x powder.
Then we went to lowes to get some adapters for an AC unit (when did plugs get so expensive?) came home from that and the wife had home made buffalo wings made

Last night I cast a pile of 240gr RN .44cal, 90gr RN .356cal, and 124gr RN .357cal.
Got a call late last night that an old caster had passed away and his gear is being sold off.6 molds, Red Dot, and shotshell wads, WW's and lead. Now... I'm looking for the funds and awaiting a text on the mold's numbers.
Drinking coffee still but I shot my crono yesterday, well really just the diffuser rod.

Pulled my well pump, set the new pump too deep to pick up dirt and got air in my water. Had to raise it, flush and shorten the hose. Works fine now. Put the pump in the center of the water column. I got a good measurement with a length of 50-50 tin lead on a rope. well is 110' and water is 32' from bottom. I set to center and no more air.
Got breakfast at my local cafe, then cast 350 9mm 359-120b boolits from my Accurate Mold. Now off to work.
I powder coated 200 rounds of 358-125-rf and loaded them into 38 special and 9mm to try out this weekend. Followed that with loading about 300 rounds of 9mm with Lee 356-95-rf over a charge of Titewad for practice loads. Loading all done on a Lee classic cast turret press.
Then helped the wife clean the house because she has company coming over tonight.
Shot three rounds of skeet today at the Air Force base getting ready for the upcoming bird seasons.
Keep your powder dry,

I cast about forty round ball for my Ten Bore Double Rifle, and loaded all 20 cases with 135gr of 777, a card wad, two jute wads, and a round ball.
I worked also. However on one of my parts runs I picked up a Lee loader in 45LC and brass and boolits from my parts guy to load for him. Mainly so I can use a Lee Loader, been itching to really see how they work.
