    I have ordered stuff in the past only to have my order canceled because the price doubled over night, they sent me am email saying it was out of stock but they had it posted at the new price the next day. Now I ordered a few items Saturday, the web site said my order didn't go through so I was like fuck it. Then Monday I get an email saying thanks for the order we will update you when it ships. They still haven't shipped or charged my card but when I call she can't find my order. So I am just waiting to see if I actual get what I ordered. On the other hand some stuff I ordered Saturday from Titan reloading showed up today. It's to bad Titan didn't have what I had to order from brownells!!!

    I got around to making some 300 Whisper/Blackout brass for myself.

    I had been sitting on about 600-700 pcs of once fired Winchester nickel. Dont know how it will work over the long term, but it trimmed and loaded just fine.

    Now back to doing a full processing on 7,000-8,000 pcs of 9x19 brass. Roll sizing, Fl resize, primer crimp removal and tumble in stainless media to make it look brand new again.

    Hoser, not sure if you do much 300BLK, I've asked a number of people if it's possible to load and run them with 240gr SMK bullets, for subsonic loads. Some have told me that it would be too long of a bullet. It would be an extra 20 grains if it could be done.

    I have been making 300 Whisper brass for people for many years and own several Whispers. Bolt gun, short (NFA) barrels, long barrels, and full auto.

    240s are easy. In fact, they were the go to bullet for the 300 Whisper for ages. Long before AAC pretty much stole everything 300 Whisper and gave it a sexy new name and SAAMI approval.

    Your barrel twist will be the make or break on the 240s. I have tried them and found them to be too finicky and too expensive. The Sierra 220 is a much better option.

    Finished lubeing and sizing some 300gr 45 colt bullets, I'm polishing some 300gr XTP's I picked up from kazoo in the tumbler. Reamed my Ruger 45LC cylinders to .4525. Hopefully my dies will be here tomorrow and I can load some ammo and go shoot!

    Pulling bullets from unknown misc rounds, sorting brass. Nice to know there's an outlet for these trashed bullets i have.

    Loaded some 45 colt and found 5 pieces of small primer S&B brass, I can't find anything on google about these.
