What did you do in the reloading room today?

Wheel & lever guns are fun, when you get tired of those new fangled semi auto's

Hell yeah they are.

And old friend of mine dropped by the house last night. He wanted me to teach him how to reload on a 550 as he had only used a single stage.

Ended up loading about 250-300 rounds of 44 Special. Turns out I had never loaded 44 Special. Luckily, 44 mag dies work fine.

I have a 44 conversion for my 1050/1100s, but that would have blown his mind and he kinda wants a 550.

What load did you end up using? I’ve got a few hundred new .44 special cases I need to load up. I’ve got some powder coated 250 grain cast hollow points I will probably load.

Just a mild load of Universal Clays and Gallant coated 200 gn round nose.

A friend came over to load Dasher at my house. He's been reloading on a single stage press, and I've been regaling him with tales of loading precision ammo at a rate of 2-3 rounds a minute on my Dillon 550. While there, he spotted my 650 and 1050 as well as my Auto Trickler. I'm pretty sure that visit is going to cost him roughly $4K.

Hopefully he doesent decide to add bluetooth.

It's pretty amazing how the 1050's sell themselves...

Two guys that I have shown my 1050's to have then gone on to buy their own.

Ha! On a side note, the connection to the target flashers is AUDIO, not bluetooth.

Have 1k of 145 coated 9mm projectiles sitting here. Guy i got them from, along with 2k of 155 p/c'd , asked if i tried sport pistol ? Lots of load data for coated bullets, sold me 3 pounds of it.
