    Morning wake me up!

    5 month old decided 430am was a good time to play. Woke momma and daddy up in the process. After getting dressed, i figured I might as well make the time productive!

    Cafe du monde coffee with chickory and 50 rounds of 45 acp before work!

    Now, if I could only teach this flea bitten mongrel to reload my ammo while im at work!

    Too hot in the garage to load, so I'm focused on emptying some of the brass I loaded during the winter to free it for when the weather turns.

    Planning a big reloading weekend.

    Gathered components for some 30-06 rounds. Doing 50.

    Tumbled some 300 Blk brass. Only have 150 bullets left, so I'll do 150.

    I have some new nickel cases for 45 Colt that I bought off someone on this board a couple years ago. Gonna load about 200 of those. Located the bullets, just need to find those cases.

    My move has me a bit disorganized.

    30-06 rounds are ready. Love the SST bullets. I load them in all our hunting calibers.

    These are 165g on top of a dose of IMR 4064. During my shuffling things around I found a new unopened bag of Winchester brass.

    So far, the SST's have been the mpsy acvurate bullets ive found for my 6.5x284. 6" groups at 600 yds. They would probably group much better than that if it wasnt for the loose nut behind the trigger. Good to know they perform well on game too!

    Polished, resized, deprimed, trimmed, and re-cleaned about 250 6.5 Grendel. Did the same to about 50 30-30, tumbled about 250 .45 and around 200 .40's. Will load the 6.5's after supper. Just need the rain to stop so I can start creating more empties.

    I shot some 45 auto rim that I loaded using HS6 for the first time. A little dirty but performed well. 200 gr swc from Berry's. Need to load some more while the weather is cool.

    Primed some 300 Blk cases while watching TV last night. I love that Lee hand primer.

    Today, I loaded my first ever, 100 rounds of 38 special on my new Hornady AP Lock-n-Load press. Tomorrow, to the range.

    How did they work out for you?

    Those first reloads were very scary for me to pull the trigger on. But, all went well and I have loaded over 20k rounds since January of 2015.
