My Feedback
Bought a new 44 to have a place to store some big game loads I am working on, they looked lonely on the bench.
Loaded a few 9mm yesterday.
Put a few hundred rounds onto stripper clips to make them look pretty during storage. Tumbled tumbled tumbled.
Went to the range and chrono'd some .40s&w loads through two pistols to find the best load for accuracy in both. First time using my new chrono and I definitely noticed the 0.5" difference in barrel length between my Glock 23 and M&P40c, there was about a 36fps difference between the two. My old pet load has been replaced with a new load, that was not only more accurate (out of 10rds per pistol) but also had the lowest Std Dev so it is my new load.
I then decided to load up 250rds of the new charge, and stashed them in a box for longer term storage with a very detailed label. If you aren't using them, the white boxes that Xtreme bullets come in make PERFECT ammo storage, just have to tape the flap closed so they don't accidentally spill on you. It'll fit 400rds 9mm, 250rds .40s&w (though probably more of 40, it was just getting kind of heavy).
Loaded 740 .223 rounds to go with the 350 9mm I loaded on Monday. Tomorrow I will take down my 550 and send it back to Dillon for a rebuild.
