I now have some VERY shiny brass, left the tumbler going for 9hrs (yea yea, I know, its not like the 24hrs some of you guys leave it going). Kind of makes me want to go tumble all of my other brass for that long [LOL]
Guess this means I have a bunch of brass to process tomorrow, so yay!
Trimmed, swagged, prepped, and re-tumbled some decapped and sized LC 5.56.
Loaded up some more .45ACP rounds. Working up a ladder.
Loaded up my first .223. 69 gr SMK over BL-C(2). Tomorrow I'll load up some 75 and 77. Still thinking about powder for those. Maybe I'll try some Varget. I need to get my behind down to pick up my 8208 XBR.
Loaded 10 450 Corvette with 320 grainers, 50 .414 Supermag with 265s, and 50 .300 BO 240 SMKs, all slated for the Chrono next week.
New to reloading. Setup the bench yesterday. Started processing brass today. Deprimed, clean primmer pockets and cleaned 1000-1500
Pieces of 223 brass today. Still waiting on my scale to come in. Looking forward to start the load process. What type of bullets are you guys using. Any recipes for SS109 bullets. I will be use h335 and Barger with CCI 400 primers.
Tumbled the brass from yesterday's range session.
loaded up 50 rounds of .308 training ammo.
Bought a bunch of powder and some boooolits.
Beat on a Dillon 1200 until it did what I wanted (for the most part).
Loaded my first 30 rounds. 10 each for test loads. .40 S&W 155gr JHP with 5.5, 5.6 and 5.7 grains of Titegroup.
Hoping to get a new head set up for 9mm tomorrow to load up a 3-step ladder for 9mm load testing.
Planning on a few hours at the range on Tuesday if work doesn't interfere.
Woo, hoo!
The real fun is the first time you shoot your reloads and they all go bang, the pistol cycles, and you still have all your fingers. :D
Sent from a device smart enough to send a man to the moon if the battery could last the trip.
Good plan. Done that a few times myself.Quote:
