So with time on my hands, 4k processed cases, 5k unprocessed cases enough powser, primers and projectiles to do them, and a single stage rock chucker sitting on a shelf for a few years now, I decided to get busy.:redface:

So far I am at 4k cases primed.

Only thing to report so far is,,,
,,,invisible floor monster 2- small rifle primers 0.
:p

Maybe tomorrow I can drill and base my press and powder stand.

How is everybody else fairing?
 
Just pulling down some unknown reloads obtained over the years.

Interesting how often the powder charge or the bullet was not what was recorded on the box or bag they were in. :runaway:

Been relading a bit every day.
Today resize and deprime a 2 gallon pail of 9mm
Day before reloaded 100 rounds of 6.5 cm
200 rounds of 460 s&w
500 rounds of 45 acp
Full ammo box of .223.
A few other odd rounds .
If the weather is nice I usually get out to go shooting so it's just a revolving cycle. Now that the local range is closed though it's all NR shooting .
 
Pushing off any reloading until the imminent lay-offs are handed out. I have about 1K 38 spec to catch up on, and a 6.5 creed ladder test loads to do (if my powder makes it). If the weather improves, maybe turn out a bunch of cast bullets. Powder coat and size after.
 
Unknown number of .223...about 5 lbs worth.
Pulled my 12 gauge press out only to realize I have to cast more slugs.
Must cast more 9mm
Must cast more .30

Must fix fence post wind just broke
 
Made up 50 rounds of 300 wsm 168 gr.
400 rounds of 223 rem with 40 gr vmax for gophers
And took on the labour of making high quality 6mm rem Ackley brass from 30-06 lapua brass using a wildcat shoulder set back die, lots of annealing and neck turning in stages.
 
So far made up 350 rounds of 308 with 168HPBT for when the PRS competitions start up again. 300 rounds of 223 for plinking and 100 rounds of 6.5CM. I think I'll be making another 100 rounds of 308 and a 1000 rounds of varmint 223 over the next week or two.

What powder & weight do you use for the 168HPBT's?
Thanks
 
Just cleaned and organized the bench since it's been a few years since I've loaded anything but seem to have time suddenly. As a bonus I found a couple bags of .308 brass and some dies I didn't know I had. Weird since I don't own a .308, guess I'll have to go to the EE and look for a budget precision rig....
 
Loaded up 50 more 22-250 w/37g varmint grenades for gopher season.
250 more 9mm to add to the collection.
Single stage.
Have about 2k .223 brass processed and ready to go, but out of bullets....

Been doing a bit each day. I'm almost out of ammo cases..... and room in the ammo cabinet.

In the past week loaded 900 .357 magnums, 100 .44 magnums, 50 .460 S&W, and 200 .45 colts. This week planning on loading some 9.3x62 and 300 Weatherby. Also did an inventory, damn, when am I going to get to shoot this, good grief, I want my range to open! Oh well, when the range does open, I won’t have to worry about supply.
