What did you do today in the world of reloading?

Its good having the freshened up Square Deal B back from Dillon.
My family is back together

BTW..I offered to pay for the rebuild but they rebuilt it at no charge and sent a brand new powder measure!

LOVE the SAC die AND the whisky. Doing it right, sir!

Mashed my finger in my Rockchucker Supreme. There's a point in the arc of movement where the handle will just drop precipitously. Don't have your finger in the way.

um..... ouch!? Dang, that looks like it was/is painful...

Ordered a box of the 6mm 115 DTACs Tuesday night, and they were on my porch this afternoon! Guess I have another excuse to spend a couple days at the range next week!! Looks like 40-41.5 grains of 4350 or 4831 is the most common load I’m seeing.

My experience is anything to run them in the 2950-3050 speed is solid. If you have the typical spec 183 freebore chamber seat them at 2.80 total oal and you will be around 20 thou off.

Here’s a interesting experience that happened this past summer. I was doing load testing and during cool down I apparently had a bug crawl into the chamber. It ended up being a nasty mess but on the plus side the load was not over pressured as it ran just fine.

I bet that bug doesn't have the guts to do that again....

What is that little case?

It’s a 6mm BR ackley or as it is commonly called a 6mm BRA. Although unlike most ackley cases it only changes the shoulder angle instead of moving the shoulder forward then changing the angle.

I loaded up some low recoil 30-30 ammo for my nephew. 10 grains of Trail Boss under a 170 gr round nose Corelokt bullet.

I cleaned plenty of .45s from our Friday qualifications at the range, deprimed and sorted them plus some older brass that's been sitting on my bench. So finally got more room and the bench is cleaner. I did not want to have to get another bench.

Ordered the new Lee Six Station Progressive press with setup for 9mm and 38/357. Will report on it when going and will not replace but add on to my Lee classic turret. With 6 stations I can add a powder check die and maybe a bullet feeder too.

Wet & rainy all day, so I tumbled some .223 brass. Resized then trimmed the necks.

Trimmed some bra today.

Ordered 12 lbs of powder from Powder Valley. I heard on a podcast last week that several powders are being discontinued (IMR Enduron) plus a 10-20% price increase across the board and supply chain issues that may cause shortages with some powders. This recent shortage has taught me a lesson for sure. I’m not getting caught having to beg and pay outrageous gunbroker prices for primers and powder again!

Picked up some .257 117gn Sierra btsp bullets for my friend, and some H-4350 for my stash.
