    Just cleaned, sorted by caliber then headstamp about 2k worth of pistol brass. 1k of it was already grouped by .40s&w, but the rest was all together in a bag.

    Note to self and anyone else getting started with cleaning their pistol brass: sort by caliber THEN clean.

    Boy oh boy, its amazing how perfectly a 9mm fits inside a .40s&w which fits inside a .45acp. And then, tiny bits of cleaning media get stuck in between the cases and wedge them together.

    Looking forward to getting my press so I can start decapping and priming.

    I just started working up some loads for my 2 new 22-250's. The books say OAL to be in the 2.350 range but I measured my chambers with the wooden dowel methed and come up with 2.500 OAL and longer with 3 different bullets. (40 and 50 grain nosler balistic tips and 64 gr winchester power points) I'm using H380 powder so far. Is 2.500 too long?

    I threw 500 pcs of 6CM brass in the stainless media tumbler and converted 1,000 pcs of 223 into 300 Whisper/Blackout for a friend.

    First, I looked at my supplies of Varget and H4350 and got angry. Where in blue blazes is it all going? You know they're making more but you never see a single pound for sale.

    After some deep breathing exercises and a double scotch, I decapped, cleaned and sized my .260 match brass.

    Default What did you do in the reloading room today?

    I stared at my Varget, not wanting to open it just yet. Think I'll use up the 4895 first.

    Lol. I stumbled on some powder locally and bought all I could afford. Even a blind pig finds a truffle every now and then.
