I have owned several 357 revolvers, one of my fav's was a 4" Colt Trooper, but I traded it off. :oops:
Now all I have left is a Colt King Cobra that I've owned since the early 80's, and
a 24" SS octagon barreled Rossi. :o ;)

Sorry Vaq, couldn't resist. My son bought a Cobra a couple of months ago and I sent him the same picture.

Loaded 50 test rounds of 357magnum with some Winchester 296 powder and a 180 grain Missouri bullets pugnose. Hope it's a mild plinking round.

JV, if you have any 2400, around 11.5 grs. works well with those bullets.

Vaquero, will pickup some 2400 if I come across any. Came across the 296 on a trip to Cabellas when a closed range prompted a road trip. The 296 is my foray into true magnum loads.

My second inline fab mount arrived. This is a quick change model so i can swap beterrn app and acp pretty easily. I have it mounted along with the hanger for the press not in use.

I now have to hang 48 inch long bin carrier. I picked up some 1680 for the 300blkout subs i want to load. I only have a few pieces of 300 brass. I need to round up some more.

I have some w244, and n340, but am running low on my 3n37, which i need to find.

On, almost out of spp,

Love the inline, quality product. I have three presses with quick mounts plus the bin holder on the wall. Great choice !

I just plain need to get to the desert and empty some brass so I can load 'em back up! Lazy butt me, just making homemade beef jerky last couple weeks. House do smell good tho. 8-)

Put together 200 rounds of 45 ACP with small pistol primers. Plan to take these to the range on Thursday and burn thru as many as I can. Not sure yet if 'I'll shoot paper of steel, but I'm leaning toward steel.

Just mounted a CT RAD pro (unexpected gift from my son) on my Shield Plus. Just need to take it to the range and sight it in. Never was interested in putting a red dot on a pistol, but it was optics ready and the CT was a gift so we will see. Easy install and co-witness the tritium sights.

Yeah, me too. I have a portable shooting bench I take out to the public land to shoot from. I call it my “unloading bench”. :lol:

Cleaned some 45-70 brass that were loaded with black powder. The ones with the duplex loads burned a lot cleaner than those with straight FFG.
