Walked up to my bench, looked at the mess I have to clean up to restore order, turned around and poured a Jameson instead.

That's a good load and those Armscor[Rock Island?] are very good 1911's. Great combo.

Nothing much today. My 357 MB bullet order came in yesterday being the 158 gr. RNFP. Waiting on the Xtreme 200 gr. plated 44's to come Friday I hope.
Have the Dilon 550 setup for the 44 loads and a bunch of clean 44 Mag brass. 9 gr. Unique will be the load.

Midway has Red Dot and Green Dot in 1 pound for 34.99, limit two each. I just ordered two of each as I really like these for 12 gauge shotgun. Get em while their hot, they've been MIA around these parts for some time.

Didn’t do anything but I did receive my two boxes of Hornady 41 210 XTP’s I ordered the other day. I’m having a good UPSP week, ordered the magazine tube limiter for my 410 from Henry on Sunday and received it on Wednesday and ordered the bullets from Midway on Monday and received them on Thursday. No special shipping requested from either. Nice job USPS.

Loaded some hunting ammo for my brothers Garand using 150gr Hornady Interlock, they're loaded to same spec as the Hornady 150gr FMJ I made him and they shot well. Although his Garand isn't a primary hunting rifle he wanted the option just because it's "Merica damnit"

Hmm. I haven't shot my 30-06 in a spell. That Ruger No. 1B needs the exercise! I don't believe I've shot it since 2012; the last year I hunted deer or elk.
That needs to be taken care of.

Not handloading, but, at the bench. Took apart and cleaned my 12ga semi-auto after a day of trap with a buddy. Shot everything just fine, but, that inexpensive Wal-mart ammo[Fed] is dirty! Don't really care, it works, busts clays and I have a bunch from a few years back. Been a while since I've shotgunned anything. Felt good. Cleaned and put away. Beer time!

Cheers RT, I hope to bust some clays next week. Just picked up three cases of white flyers from Walmart for eight bucks each.
