What did you do in the reloading room today?

Resized & trimmed some Federal brass & nickel 06 cases.
I have been using Federal Premium 180’s (in photo) that were gifted to me.
The thick woods I hunt and the 35 yard shots, the premium ammo is causing too much blood shot.
Real mess of jellied blood to clean when butchering.
Going to load Sierra 180 RN behind Surplus 4831 & W748 to lower velocity & the RN will expand less.
Which ever shoots better I’ll go with. Next year I’ll see if it helped.

Resized/deprimed a tub full of 223 from last summer, they're in the tumbler. On their way through the process of being turned back into competition ammo for next summer. I'm usually horrible at getting brass ready to have on hand when I need to load some, trying to get a jump on it over the winter. This is my last batch of 223.
