    Default What did you do in the reloading room today?

    Just decapped 2.5k of 223. Found out I have a hell of a lot of berden primed brass, anyone have any ideas on what to do with it?

    Depends on how motivated you are for the brass Either add it to the recycle bucket, put it up for sale or try to find some berdan primers and reload

    I dreamed of being in my reloading room, opening up all of my boxes filled with powder, primers, brass and bullets. Soon very soon I will be back in my room.

    Discovered I was out of ammo and full of empty brass.

    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?
