With a 650, reloading is not an all day project. ;)

I have a Rock Chucker.....on purpose. Getting lost into the tiny little details makes for a fun afternoon for me.
i use reloading time as therapy. Shooting, in general, is very calming to me.
Once I get everything set up for the caliber, I can make maybe 100 rds per hour....probably more if I'm just creating plinking ammo.
200 rounds of 45 ACP to use up the last of my 230 gr BBIs. Next batch will put me into my 2k Bayous.
Set up my new base plate for my trimmer, super swage, powder measure and new RCBS Priming tool. Which is the best thing since sliced bread when priming Lapua Brass with tight pockets. The hand priming units just don't cut it there.
Then......
Brass prep, lots and lots of brass prep.
Neck turning sucks balls BTW.
I'd be curious to hear how you like the Bayous...
I did a few hundred of .45 with 185gr JHP, 357mag and some more .38spl. The 125gr Xtreme plated FP are just excellent in both .38 & 357mag!! I've been very surprised by these plated bullets.

Yep, did 50 rounds EXACTLY alike (or close enough that my rifle won't be able to tell the difference) of .260 Remington.
It took about a little more than a half hour.
cleaned, sized, and started trimming 400 pieces of .223. I hate trimming.
Knocked out some more 300 Whisper and kept plugging along on my 45 GAP brass.
Cleaned and deprimed ~ 1500 .223 cases. I'm dreading the trimming.
