What did you reload today?

[Mikej]

"Frugal"?

Yes, "Frugal" , cheap, tight, skin flint-ish, sparing, saving, careful, cautious, PRUDENT! Unwasteful, sensible......

And BTW, I was looking for something to do at the loading table and found two empty boxes of 9mm and .40 S&W. So got down and loaded up 100 of each. .40 gets 7.3grs HS6 under Montana Gold 155gr HPs and 9mm gets 6.4 grs HS6 under 115gr MG HPs.

I wasn't planning on doing any reloading related activities today. However, unbeknownst to me, apparently I cleaned 9mm brass without knowing I did so. How you might ask?

Well, I found one solitary 9mm case in the dryer along with my range clothes.

So, now I have clean brass, clean range clothes and a strong desire to get them all dirty again...

I took off early from work as I want to finish loading another 500 50 Beowulf's that I prepped over the past couple days. Have a variety of bullets to load from 325gr flex tips to 400gr JSP's.

Wow! Now that's dedication! Taking off from work to reload. My hat is off to you sir.
I wish I could do that.
Oh! That's right. I don't have to because I don't work because I am retired.
I do like the dedication though.
Never took off to reload but I did manage to get a lot of case prep done at work over the years.

 

[misterarman]

Really boring today.
Only processing 9mm.

I'm salary and needed to use my "overtime" by the end of the month as it doesn't carry over to the next month, LOL. Planning on taking off Friday to switch calibers, I slacked off this winter and have some catching up to do before the weather really turns nice.

 

[Twodogs]

Picked up 500 rds of 155 gr XTP's for the 10MM started loading them and found out I'm about out of Bluedot, and there seems to be none in the free world. may get about 200 loaded before I'm out.

Man! Here I thought you were really dedicated.

I finished with this lot of 357 brass. 150 loaded with CCI550's & 37with Ginex SPP's, same TiteGroup charge and bullets as my last 357 post.

Well, I did leave early to reload with plans of doing the same thing again this week so……….

Any time there are pla s to reload it is a good thing.

"Plans"

 

[2ndtimer]

100 rounds of 9mm, Blazer brass, 115 gr TMJ from American Reloading, Fiocchi SP primers and 5.1 gr of BE-86. I was hoping for 5.2 gr but was short on time so I settled on 5.1 gr…
Yesterday I loaded up some Zero 10 mm 200 gr FMJ for my son to try out in his KKM barrel Glock Model 20SF with 22 lb recoil spring. 5 rounds each at 9.0, 9.3, 9.6 and 9.9 gr of Blue Dot in new Starline brass with Federal 150 LP primers. I plan to stick with 180 gr bullets and BE-86 in my stock Model 20.5 MOS. He spends more time where the bears are…

I am done with .357 for a year or two after finishing up another batch of brass that begged me to load them with 160g coated lead bullets. Primed 200 + cases with Ginex SPP's then ran em through the AP with 4.8g TiteGroup.
700+ rounds total on hand.
My next project will be loading 300) 38SPL with 148g WC bullets. Haven't loaded them before so some research is in order.

Wow never thought of using Titegroup for 357 mag! I like Titegroup for 38 special loads.
But I am done with lead bullets. I like the Missouri or Blue coated bullets. Next I have some
223 mid range (600 yards) ammo using 80.5 grain Bergers. Then 2K of 38 special using
Missouri 125 RN FP.

I hear you being done with lead bullets. Except when I end up with some and they aren't worth selling so I have to load and shoot them.

If it's in the book, it can't be all that bad, right?
I've been using TiteGroup for years loading 9mm up to 357, it's been working good for me.

 

[conditor22]

Annealed 1,000 pcs 40 S&W brass and a bunch of rimfire brass for swaging into bullets --- while doing a self-clean in my oven.
The 40 S&W will become 44 maq bullets and the rimfire for the 223/556

 

[Mikej]

I like the Missouri or Blue coated bullets.

I don't know what differences there may be in different coated bullets? I decided after running some Bad Man bullets in .45 colt that I should try a local company. I believe on the suggestion of @kmk1012 I tried T&B and they work fine. And they're made in Sweet Home. good price/quick shipping.
