What did you do in the reloading room today?

Developing a new load for both my LRKM. One is a 338 Terminator and the other is a 338Edge +P. Also for my 7mmstw but it has 1,000 rounds down the tube. Probably time to rebarrel lol
 
I received 50pcs of Norma 30-06 brass in the mail. Ran them over my .3055 mandrel, cleaned up the case mouths, and took measurements to log into the load book. Unsure of what I will load them with but needed some brass for another 30-06 rifle.
 
Rimmed or rimless? What rifle? Interesting cartridge…
Rimless.

Manzella Precision built the rifle for me on a Lone Peak Fuzion action with a Brux Barrel. I have been extremely pleased with the accuracy.

5 shots at 100 using a 210g Barnes TSX over RL15.



This is the reamer drawing JGS did for me. I used Peterson 280AI brass and necked them up to .338. Fireforming was still necessary because the 8.5 is longer than the parent cartridge, but it formed very easily .

 
Prepped and primed 100 6.5 PRC cases. Took FOREVER with the God forsaken Forster Co-Ax. What a piece of trash. So glad to be done!
 
Loaded some 6.5PRC with H4831. Still trying to push velocity with the Nosler 150gr ABLR. Also loaded some 150gr SMK's to see if I can make these bullets group at all.

Also included a group from this past weekend. With 53.0grs of the H4831 pushing the 150 ABLR bullet. I was only at 2710 MV so hopefully it'll stay tight as I continue to add powder.

Wow. I hate to see anyone that unhappy reloading. Send that useless Forster to me asap and get yourself something you’ll enjoy!
 
Cleaned!!! So I can finally reload! 😂
My bench is in the garage so it becomes the catch all for kids, wife and my loose items. First items in the list to reload is work up 243 load and a lever action 25-35 load.
I feel like most of us understand your pain sir.

Today I loaded a small amount of rounds to test for pressure signs in a new rifle and prepped some brass for follow up loads. Seeing what other people are doing in their loading rooms motivates me to spend more time doing something I enjoy and don’t do enough of.

Post up what you’ve been doing as big or as little of a job as it might be, hell even cleaning up your bench counts!

Well if cleaning your bench counts I sanded a platform to a small dolly. It’s for my coax press I mounted on a bench grinder stand. I roll it in and out of my closet. Great space saver.
