"I am a conservative. Quite possibly I am on the losing side; often I think so. Yet, out of a curious perversity I had rather lose with Socrates, let us say, than win with Lenin."

Getting an old Lyman press ready to go back into service as a Swager.
De-primed, Swaged and cleaned 800 pieces of 5.56 Damn I hate swaging. But ya only have to do it once, right.
<---- sniffed some Varget.
supervised more Feng Shui of the dillon reproductive area. Gotta tell ya. Without the help of fellow board members this project, even the first one , would have never got off the ground.

I loaded 50 rounds of .308 yesterday. I was trying two things out:
1. Seeing if my new awesome crimp die will work for .308 also. I only crimped 25, so I've got a little pool to get a decent average with. The crimp is also really light compared to what I've seen on factory ammo.
2. Seeing if the 175 SMK 2nds I got are worth a darn. I picked them up for 22ยข per, so 1k was easy. Even if they are nothing but training rounds for the next month, that'll be worth it.
i crimped 30 rds of my .260 match ammo to see if that will help calm down some of the SD and ES I was seeing.
Just doing what I can to stay on this side of the dirt.
Was offered this reception desk, if I want to bother dismantling it and somehow getting it into my basement. It's pretty big, but I was thinking of using it both as a computer desk and a reloading desk. I don't use the computer in the basement much, but it's where my media and file server, etc. is. On one hand, I think it'd be perfect, but on the other it's huge and would be a major PITA for me to move...
I'd also probably have to add something stronger to bolt the press to, since I'm pretty sure this wouldn't hold up alone.
