So.. what are you reloading at the moment??

[55fairlane]

Getting ready to load some M2 ball clone loads......

I am upping the crimp on my .38 loads, on account of having a bullet come unseated while shooting my 442 and dump powder into the cylinder. Thought I broke the gun until a helpful person found a bunch of powder lodged under the ejector.

 

[Leadeye]

44 special and 44-40, using the same Lee 200 grain cast bullet, just sizing the 44-40 to .427.

Bringing back the .222 Remington..

In the process of getting back into some loads for the "Triple Duce".
Gathering some brass, and even "Re-cycling" some .223/5.56 brass for this use.

I’ve been processing 3k 223 brass lately. I sorted out the commercial brass, trimmed, and decapped it. Now I’m working on trimming, decapping, and swaging the military brass.

I can’t stand to do more than a few handfuls of brass at a time, so it’s taken a while.

Loading perfect brass will be worth it though.

My most recent endeavor is 110gr Accubond bullets in 270 Winchester cases, with a reduced charge of H4895. (I recently had some troubles with my retina and wanted a reduced recoil option.)

This load drives the 110 AB to around 2,500fps, making it comparable to, or slightly faster than, a 6.8 SPC. The recoil is truly nominal, especially compared to the 140gr full-throttle stuff.

123gr Nosler Polys over 18.8gr of SW-BO... My press seems to be stuck in 300BO gear lately...

Its Friday.

Getting ready to load a few hundred 22 Hornets for my son's Micro Abolt and my 1885.

Tumbler has been running non stop the last two weeks. Lots of range brass to sort and start reloading.

You tumble BEFORE you sort??

How do you keep: 9MM/.40 W&W/.45acp. .223's from getting inside each other??

Been there-done that..Bill.

Tumbler is running right now, 45 acp and 45colt

What diameter are you getting as dropped?
Thinking about trying the Lee but need .431 or a little bigger.

My Lee 6 hole drops .430 which works for everything I have in 44 special, the 44-40s have to go to .427 through the sizer as the old Colts won't take anything bigger. You can bump up a Lee mold some by putting a mandrel in the base of a cast bullet from the mold, then coat with toothpaste. Put it back in the mold and hold with light pressure while you spin the bullet with a cordless drill slowly. The trick is to go slow and make checks so it doesn't get too large.

Sometimes I tumble before sorting. If anything is stuck together it'll come apart or get pitched. The tumbler was full of lake city 556 before I started dumping the range brass in. This was all free brass so I'm not sweating it over a few lost rounds. I'll be holding on to all the 45acp I find, got a colt combat commander in the safe waiting to be fed.

 

[BeDome]

Still rocking through thousands of military brass hoping to get them to .223 spec eventually.

I am about half shy of having enough bullets to load up all of it.

Doing some .45s after trimming the .223 gets boring.

 

[red_zr24x4]

Pulled the lever on the 550 about a dozen times today doing 9mm, then I got bored

 

[cmann250]

I got bored with deburring and swaging, so I loaded some .223 brass that I’ve been working on. Pulling the handle on a few hundred flawless rounds makes all that case prep worth it!

I ran out of my go-to powder, WIN748, and switched to pull down WC844 (H335). I tested 30 rounds and it’s GTG.

I've loaded a ton of the surplus powders WC844 and WC846 both are GTG

Need to clean a bunch more .45Colt, Shot about 150 more today
