What did you do today in the world of reloading?

my Texas coyote buster

not much use on Texas game hunting, but cool to own and shoot on occasion

Well you just sold me off of that 375 Ruger I was eyeing... And probably that 338 win mag I've been trying to talk my wife into :-C

personally, I would choose the .375 H&H over the .375 Ruger just because of it's history (honestly never looked at the ballistics for the Ruger because I already had the H&H, didn't need another African game cartridge, I did own a .458 Win Mag for a couple of years, I only bought the .458 because a guy needed money bad so I bought it for 250.00 about 20 years ago ( a Ruger # 1) figuring I could make a little money on it, I kept it a couple of years and played with it from time to time, but eventually sold it for a nice little profit after I had my fun.
I highly recommend the .338 Win Mag, especially if you reload, load it down 200 gre bullets for deer & hogs or stoke it up with the 250 gr Sierra SBT for elk, I have owned all of the belted mag series, but the .338 is my favorite, I got rid of the .264, .300 & .458, the .300 mag would be my second choice but it would be a battle to choose between the .300 & the Rem 7 mag ( I chose to keep the 7mag also, but seldom shoot it any more, just can't bring myself to part with it)

I told the wife I wanted either the 338wm or 375 Ruger as a heavy hitter backup rifle "just in case" of dinosaurs, aliens, bears, or tyrannical governments. She keeps saying no because "when am I ever going to shoot any of those things..."

She's right though and your post just further makes me realize that. I've got the 450 bushmaster which is a short range heavy hitter anyway. So, I guess I'll keep holding out for a lever gun.

Trayed some 223 for gaging.

The traying machine is simply a beast.

Worked on getting a new pistol machine setup for proximity switches and a new program. Almost there.

charged on seated all the projectiles for the .375 tonight, then unbolted my RCBS Big Max from the bench and re-mounted it on an Inline Fabrication Ultramount, raised it 9 1/2" so no more bending over to lower the handle when loading rifle ammo, the Dillon 650 is already raised on the the strong mount and I was going to fab something myself for the single station press when I discovered Inline offered one for the Big Max, so I ordered it and USPS delivered it today, would recommend them to anyone that wants to elevate their press, they offer several models for various presses already pre-drilled

Sorry to hear about the long wait time. I may get one one day but for now I’ll just be happy with my Lee breach lock.

Ordered a new unloader. Changing out my carry pistol.

Then I reset my dies for a run of 45gap on the single stage. Already flared them all. Just need to seat a bullet. I'll do that tomorrow.
