Why do you hate loading 308 vs 223? I find the opposite as the small bullets seem to give my hands a cramp sooner.

I’ve had the tumblers working OT and have buckets of 556, 40, 9, and 380 clean to load over the winter.
Cleaned up all the Glock GSSF stuff for the season, ever clean a 100+ mags in a day?
May swap the 1050 over to 40 today and decide what ratio to load stock and STI length.

Cleaned and sorted a pretzel barrel full of brass.
Setup the BobChute to drop into a Starbucks iced coffee bottle strapped to the bench leg.
Setup the 550 for 45 Colt for the first time.

I like 9g Unique under 255g boolit in 45 Colt - what are you going to do?

All I used to do was black powder 250 grain PRS Big Lubes. I'm going to try some smokeless this time to use at the indoor range. Right now I have some plated 250gr Missouri Bullet Company Cowboy #1's I got in trade. I also got a bunch of powders in trade, and it looks like I have Accurate #5, Hodgdon Universal and Winchester 231 that show loadings. I also have some HP-38 I was using for .380 that I could load. I also have a box of Lasercast 250 gr to try at some point.

I figure I'll load up 12 of each and see how they feel. I'm open to suggestions too.

Finally ran out of loaded 243 ammo.

Tumbled about 950 cases and ran them all through my Giraud trimmer. Next step is to anneal them and then load them.

Assembled both of my new-to-me 1050's and got an email about my "Hornady Get Loaded" submission. 12-16 weeks from now to get my 100 free bullets... LOL. I guess they are "free"...

This weekend I am going to get both 1050's mounted and see if I can get it all organized again...

Two 1050s?

I like where your heads at.
