What did you do in the reloading room today?

Continuing loading 600 yard ammo for 223; 24.50 grains of BLC2, Winchester Small Rifle primers and Berger 80's. Got another hundred done today and need to get a hundred done tomorrow.

I had to laugh though, it was getting chilly in the shop and I couldn't figure out why until I noticed the sun was hitting the thermostat and it was reading 74 degrees. Pulled the shade and the heat kicked back on after a minute.
 
Prepped 200 pieces of new star line 6.5 Grendel brass for my Howa mini. Working up loads with leverevolution and tac along with the 107gr tmk and 118gr cavity back mkz.
 
Sized, primed, and loaded 100 rounds of 22 Creed with 62 ELDVT primarily for thermal hunting this winter. It’s been a good combo so hard to steer away from it.
 
Finished loading the 50 223 cases with 1/2 grain more than previous load of W748 and seated Speer 50 grain tnt bullets at different lengths but it seems from shooting a 100 so far that seating depth isn’t picky with this bullet. Couldn’t tell if seating depth changes improved or worsened accuracy.
 
Cleaned my 17 HMR. It's been a while, the weather is not favorable, groups opened up a little, so why not

Received my Lee FCD for some 125 grain Hammer HHTs I'm going to work up (6.5 PRC).

Ordered a LE Wilson Power Trimmer Adapter, LE Wilson Burring Tool Power Adapter, and a Tin Coated Trimmer. Small adds but I'm looking forward to them.
 
That'll give you a great sample size. 👍
I hope the hornady #2270C shoot well (cheap) cuz I am not interested in shooting FMJ ‘s due to poor accuracy usually. I do have a supply of hornady #2275 HP which was the most accurate in my 22-250 but that bullet is discontinued.
 
Got to a stopping point loading 223 (ran out of ammo boxes), so switched over to loading 6mmAR T40I for long range competition and got 50 of those boxed. Also did some fitting work on a 1911 that I'm putting together.
