What did you do in the reloading room today?

Every reloader needs a dasher.

OMG? OMG what?

Sorry, that was unclear of me. OMG in the sense you had to do that and were put in danger by someone's reloads. Glad you're playing it safe and disassembling everything!

That's the thing, my cousin was very meticulous about reloading. Almost to the point of OCD. I really can't understand why they did that unless perhaps they were fire formed to his chamber, if that'll cause issues that is.

I did have an uncle who was notorious for blowing up stuff. Broke the firing pin on Grandpa's 243 and froze the bolt on a 7 mag that a buddy had. Last time he hunted with us he had a 257 Roberts. Every time he'd pull the trigger the primers would bust out the end of the case. Came to find out later he had two different kinds of powder mixed together. And he loaded hotter than hell it's self for everything too.

I've always stayed on the low end of my reloading, in the limited amount of metallic that Ive done.

If you put a funnel upside down over the threaded rod it speeds up the tumble quite a bit.

Good to know I’ll try it out

That's the first time I've heard that. Can you give some more context as to what the funnel does?

BTW - I love the clear lid on tumblers. I can't believe it took so long for manufacturers to figure that out.

It’s science of some sort that I don’t understand. My best guess is the funnel causes stuff to go “downhill” which speeds up the tumble.

I read it on a review somewhere when I bought mine and tried it. I was pretty impressed with the improvement the funnel made.
