    Bought 6,000 pcs of once fired 45 GAP for a song from a buddy in Florida. Its in good shape, but tarnished from getting wet.

    So now to make it pretty again I am going to end up tumbling it all in stainless media. 700 pcs done today. 5,300 to go. Joy.

    Finally found my reloading room & loaded up some .45acp with Nosler 185gr JHP competition bullets with 231 powder.

    Made about a thousand 300 Whisper/Blackout and kept plugging along with cleaning up my 45 GAP brass.

    Default What did you do in the reloading room today?

    Setup my Lyman case trimmer.

    gathered load data.

    I looked at a five gallon bucket of unprocessed brass and quickly left the room.

    Good plan. Done that a few times myself.

    I keep plugging away prepping .223 brass. I've got about 3700 rounds polished, sized and de-primed. Of those, I've only trimmed about 700 cases. My Dillon super swager should arrive tomorrow so I'll start swaging soon. Man, this stuff takes some time. I've even got the Giraud trimmer which should make things easier/faster and it still takes some serious time. All the brass I've got is once-fired and about 3/4 of it is Lake City so I'm hoping the lack of swaging and minimal or no case trimming next time around will make it go faster.

    I feel like once I've got the brass prepped and ready to load, it'll go pretty quickly with the Dillon 650. Time will tell, I guess. I'll probably do a bunch of pistol ammo first to get the hang of it since this is my first experience with reloading.

    a dillion 1050 will solve your problem, along with their case trimmer. If you want to really get dirty, get a lee pro 1000 for decapping. I decap on the lee, then do a 3/4 resize on the dillon, then trim, then do a full length resize. Works like a champ...Sometimes you just gotta ask yourself how much your time is worth...

    Sat back and guided a friend as he loaded 80rds of 9mm (took a while to get the lee adjustable charge bar dialed in) and a ladder of 18rds of 30-06 (weighing each charge because I don't have a powder dropper).

    We're heading to the range tomorrow to blast some clays and test out his 30-06 loads.
