It's working out amazingly well. I hope it will help me keep my reloading benches clean so I can reload a bit easier. I have quite a bit more to clean up and organize.

Well, everything is marked and labeled, the benches are organized, and they are cleaned up. Right now, I am torn. Should I decorate my toolboxes with my hard-earned swag?

Nice, my mild OCD is pleased with your efforts. As to the swag, I say no because it clutters up the look of your boxes. Opps, there goes my OCD again :lol:

That being said, you have some interesting swag there.

That's a mighty impressive work area you have there! Mine looks like the pictures of Einstein's desk. :lol:

Loaded up a few rounds, test batch of 357mag.

Win 244, 4.4 to 5.2 grains

Pushing 180grn jacketed bullets.

3 shot group averaged 859.2 fps out of the henry,

It looks like I had one that was a few tenths of a grain less. I'll redo it.

I'd like to see if i can bump that up to about 1000fps. But it looks like i might need to swap powders.
