Today I have been rearranging my shelves of reloading components.
It’s like Christmas in August , I found yet more .556 ammo I loaded last year, some 62 gr steel core .
The AC is chugging right along, it’s a great day in the neighborhood.
That's a stealAnd a 500 rnd unopened case of Federal 55 ball , price take on it was $99, sheesh.
I don't currently have any 30 cal checks yet so I'm gonna have to pick some up. They will be checked but I won't be pushing them very fast though.Are your coated 308s loaded hot? Gaschecked?
I have a 450bm. Several times but be was ndered if the 458socom would have been a better choice. This 450 beats my arm up pretty hard. I just ordered a heavier h2 buffer for it though so hopefully this weekend I can test it out.Academy had another box of 458 300g bullets. Kudos to @ROGER4314 for turning me on to those. I always pick one up if they have it. I need to load another 100. Love that SOCOM.
A buddy has a 450BM, and he hates it for the same reason. My 458 has the recoil of a light 12 gauge load. Not bad at all, in fact I love to shoot that thing. Still waiting on a chance to pop a hog with it.
Love my 450. You need to try a brake on it, mine kicks about like a 20 gauge slug.I have a 450bm. Several times but be was ndered if the 458socom would have been a better choice.

I tried out a Frankford arsenal pile driver. It broke on the 8th round. I sent it back and they sent me a.new one but I haven't opened it. I picked up an RCBS collet puller and it was pretty neat. Went faster than I expected. I highly recommend it.Bought and used a bullet puller to remove bullet from goofed round. The went to retrieve the bullet by gently shaking from the puller over an open powder can plop went the bullet and buried itself in the powder

If using a hammer puller I dump rounds into a plastic cup and them pick out the bullets before dealing with the powder.
As for the pile driver, well, it's still sitting under my bench. Maybe someday I'll **** with it again. I wasn't impressed though.
