What did you do at your reloading bench today?

[Vaquero]

Good to hear Al, wonder why the 41's cycle a longer cartridge than the 44's?

No bench time today....gone shootin' !

[Hatchdog]

Decapped some .223 brass and then into the wet tumbler. First 600 yd F Class practice is March 18th so I had better get going.......

You tumbler looks like mine. Did you add those two gray bands on the bucket, or did you do that yourself? Good idea, may add that to mine. Better traction.

Yes I did, it’s self adhesive grit tape. I was getting too much slippage and this made a great difference.

Fruits of honest labor, to be enjoyed later.

[Greyhawk]

Cleaning firearms... All my .45 caliber stuff and man some of it was pretty dirty! Been shooting too much I guess... Gotta stop then I won't have to clean em'

[Vaquero]

Before I go to bed I'm going to load a handful of 44's just so I can ring the BYG in the morning that I couldn't this morn.

Sized and flared a bunch of range pickup aluminum 9mm cases for one time, medium power, let 'em fly loads for on the run jackrabbit chasing on the desert!

[Vaquero]

Well I didn't do them before I went to bed.
So I did 12this morning, that was all the prepped brass I found.
Need to fire up the tumbler I guess.
19.3 grs 2400 and a 240 gr hp.

From the looks of all the empty tumbled brass I have on the bench, I better get started soon.

That would have been one way to wake the neighbors.

Me too, and I don't shoot on Sundays at my range.

I watched the spent brass pile up on the bench. Yikes, I've got some work to do. I'm still waiting on that heavy snow day, but it looks like Spring is close. The Poplar trees are budding, iris's are poping up, and the Birds seem to be back. It got up to 61° today.

[Mistered]

Straightened my bench up a bit and tumbled & dried a couple hundred aluminum 9mm cases.

[Shakey Jake]

Not anything today but will need to reload those .22 hornet cases.

[RanchRoper]

Another 50 rounds of 250 gr LRNFP 7.0 gn Universal.

[BigAl52]

No reloading but I put the lever wrap on the 41 lever today.

[Grunt67]

Gonna start back reloading some 9mm, I had put aside for a while. Looks like it going to be rain the rest of the week. So, something to pass the time. I've got about 400 pcs of brass left, so I'll have something to do 'til Spring, then I have plenty to do outside.

[Hatchdog]

Loaded 100 .223 Rem match loads. 600 yard F Class practice is next week. I also replaced the scope rings going from high to medium so I’ll have to re-sight in the rifle. Shucks.
