What did you do in the reloading room today?

[WMDM]

All your areas really make my space look like a pig pen!

That’s 100 times better than anything I had starting out. Nice set up!

We are very fortunate. My son interned last year at Hornady, and they taught him a lot as well as took EXTREMELY good care of him. Realistically we only had to buy a few smaller things and components (bullets, powder, primers), benches, and I’ve been saving brass for 20+ years for these days to come. We are proud to support them regardless of how anyone else feels. Can’t thank them enough. 1000x + for Hornady in my book.

Also on the plus side, we can get a lil tech support if he calls some of the guys back there if we need it. No substitute for y’all though.

I think you may have misunderstood. You're area looks clean and ordely compaired to my reloading area. Looking good!

Oh no, I understood lol. It’s only clean cuz we just set it up. Probably not gonna look as nice after we get some time under our belts. Hopefully it stays nice, but dang my kids are unfortunately not as organized as I. Appreciate the compliment truly though.

You’re an over achiever

Retired so I can procrastinate as I choose

Rcbs ram priming tool. Lee hand primer I got decades ago broke long ago.
Stone Age reloader here…

That's my tool of choice, too! It's served well for over a decade, and I love the kind of Rube Goldberg vibe when it operates.

 

[Xperimental]

Prepped 40 25-06 casings getting ready to load up some test rounds with retumbo and IMR 4831. Speer 120 grain hot cor and 117 grain interlocks. Would like to try the 110 accubond but no luck.

Primed 200 357 cases & flared 200

Got the track installed and I'm now moving things around to see how it all fits.

I've been thinking about it for awhile now. When I bought the new press I decided it was time.

 

[49ereric]

Flared 400 357 mag cases so ready load the 600 cases.

 

[43.6N]

Tried reloading 45ACP for the first time on a progressive.

Yikes.
Only put 10 together while I was getting all the measurements and powder thrower dialed in.

They all seemed to feed well when cycled from the mag. We shall see…

Went with the following recipe:
230gr round nose berrys plated bullets.
5.5gr CFE Pistol
CCI 300 large pistol primers
Starline brass.
1.250”

Would love to see 750fps out of 5” colt.

Almost done packing the bench for the move at the end of the month.

 

[waspocrew]

Loaded 100 rounds of 22-250 AI and 53 gr Vmax. These are scooting along right at 3700 out of my 22" barrel. There's some more room to go in the case for sure, but I'm not sure how many RPMs these can handle, so I'll stick with them. This barrel has about 900 rounds on it, so I'll probably ride with this until it dies.

Should work well on rock chucks soon!

I feel your pain. We just finished moving a couple weeks ago and my stuff is still in boxes. It’s terrible.

 

[stratofisher]

Did a little annealing on the burstfire induction. This thing is the bomb. Load the rack and let it go.

 

[49ereric]

Loaded 100 357 mag with 300MP, Win mag primer & Northeast reloading’s 158 gr JSP

 

[rugerhoyt]

Setup a new bench! Haven’t reloaded since I was a kid with my pops, got talked into a wildcat cartridge so here we go! Resized 100 6.5prc brass to 6mm after I was done.
