What did you do in the reloading room today?

I finally broke something from lee! I dropped my damn large primer adapter from my challenger breech lock press and the ear broke off. So I have to either order a $7 part or upgrade presses.

Clearly you need to upgrade your press.

Found an AMERC in 38spl pc of brass while tumbling some. Ended up going through all the 38 i purchased in that deal, makng sure it was a loner.

Yeeesh. I feel for you, brother.

Thanks. It was a random thing, this close finishing up the 158 XTP ladder test rounds. . Next thing you know AMERC Having dealt with their loaded 223 in the past was bad enough. Finding a spent case (in 1 pc) almost had me setting the s/single stage up.

Every once in a while I'll find one of those turds in my .45's. The fact that I have to sort out commie small primer brass these days allows me to catch them and put them in the scrap can. I really don't even like them rubbing against the commie brass. At least I can use that once and leave it on the ground.

Which powder did you use? Charge weight? Barrel length you plan on shooting them out of?

It would be nice to use the same bullets as I use in .30-06

I use imr4227, and load around 16.5. I'm currently running a 16 inch barrel. I plan to build a pistol upper soon but with the same carbine gas set up it shouldn't be an issue. I haven't used a chrono yet, so not sure where I am sitting fps but haven't had any issues.

Thank you. I am still deciding on which free float tube to put on the 8.5" pistol upper I'm building. Pistol gas on mine but that load might just work. I will give it a try.
