What did you do in the reloading room today?

I prepped 100 virgin Peterson cases for loading.
I expanded the necks to push the imperfections to the outside, turned the necks to .014 , expanded and uniformed the flash holes, resized the cases with an SAC sizing die with .283 bushing (sets the neck tension to .002), chamfered/deburred, and finally pin tumbled the cases to clean. I got 15 120g Partitions loaded over 6.5 Staball (44.5-45.5g) to test.

 
Shot some 6.5 loads today, liked what I was seeing with the 100gr ttsx at 47.7 gr of h4350. Going to mess with seating depth to tighten the group up a bit. Ended up trimming and prepping 75 6.5cm cases and then worked up a ladder for a 130tsx in 300sav starting at 42.4gr of w748 and increasing each round by .3gr. Heading out of town for the weekend but I'm curious to see how the copper monos shoot out of the old lever gun.
