What did you do in the reloading room today?

[JasonWi]

Since my reloading and archery share the same space I’ll add this. My wife found this free bench on FB marketplace and I was able to mount my press and vice to it

Unfortunately the tool box has to be moved to use the press, but it gets used so minimally it’s a minor issue

I did load 20 rounds of 223 with the 77 TMK in 23.3 and 23.5 of 8208 to get velocities on next weekend

Loaded .308 up with IMR 4064 and varget. See who wins here in a few days

Hard to go wrong with those two

Throw 4895 in there and you have every base covered!

If I had some I would!!! I use 4895 for my ‘06 probably should get some and pull the old girl out

I picked up some more from Bruno’s today, they had some good powder deals rolling this weekend on a few that I need. It’s a Milsurp/Garand/M1A shooter staple!

My first rifle was a Springfield 1903A3. Still in the safe, shoots 165gr partitions really well behind IMR 4895

Switched from resizing and prepping 223 brass over to the 6mm wildcat I use for long range competition. It always amazes me how little effort resizing 223 takes, compared to anything larger.

Prepped brass and loaded up some hopefuls from the varget vs 4064 day. 4064 just doesn’t like the gun.

I tried some of that in a Gold Medal Match copy load and the gas gun I was testing it in hated it lol. I feel your pain.

Tumbled, cleaned, and trimmed 200 .223 cases. Hunting season is over and getting ready for the winter shooting marathon.

Primed said cases, although not in the reloading room, on the La-Z-Boy with my RCBS priming tool.

I bough a black Friday craftsman rolling tool workbench with drawers making a new home for my annealer and storage for all the stuff that had been cluttering my bench. Now if my Giraud will just ship I will have a place for it to go as well.

Primed 50 223 cases slowly with the press one at a time before my back said get off this chair.

Poor man’s firearm

Primed more 223 cases the last two nights and made up some new shooting bags, dumped the sand and went with beans, peas & corn.

Had an issue using a hand reamer in the primer pockets, too tight caused a burr and loaded cartridges wouldn’t fit the case gauge. Remove the burrs and gtg.
Ordered a rcbs swager.

 

[49ereric]

Resized 150 223-5.56 mixed cases and trimmed a 100 that were recent range pickups and the 50 I shot for barrel break in. Swaging comes next for all the cases that have been prepped.

 

[sierracharlie338]

Ordered a ton of shotshell reloading equipment to start doing that for a 16ga I’m waiting to have delivered.

Prepped some 223 brass. Looked at all the boxes of ammo for my 223 Ackley that I rarely shoot any more (it’s a big heavy gun). Seeing all that nice brass just sitting has me itching to improve my tikka 223. Might drop in to my smith and see what he’d charge to re-chamber and set it back. Probably should have pulled the trigger on the group buy, but I had just ordered a Dasher barrel.

Cold front currently so might be a spell before I shoot.
