What did you do today in the reloading room?

[Deerhunter]

Just trying to start a fun thread. I stole this idea from another forum, a chance to tell us what your doing and keep the reloading forum alive!


I'm personally resizing 100 new(old stock) 35 rem cases that had alot of dented case mouthes. They just went into the tumbler, and as soon as they get done will be sizing them.

Loaded up some Barnes 120's over varget for the 7-08. Excited to see how they shoot. Also loaded 10 280 ai with the 150 eldx. They are gonna have to shoot good to replace the Nosler's lol.

 

[kornbread]

I didn't do anything today, but did some loading yesterday. I loaded some 308 Win. 165gr GMX with 44gr Varget.

 

[nso123]

Loaded some 280AI with 146gr Hammers to try out and some 6mm Creedmoor with 88gr Hammers.

 

[Safari Hunt]

Nothing today. Spent yesterday adjusting a charge bar to load 3/4 oz. 12 ga. loads. Tomorrow I'll work on the powder charge, 16.7 grains of Clays. Using 3/4 oz. for skeet. If I was shooting in competition, I would go for the full 1-1/8 oz. load for the extra shot. I can get 533 loads out of a 25 lb. bag of shot with the 3/4 oz. load! I'm cheap...so cheap they have my picture next to the word in the dictionary.

Not exactly today, but yesterday I did manage to score 8lbs of IMR4350. Been thinking of picking some up for 3006 but should be useful in my 7mm-08 and 243 loads.

 

[Sniper23]

Yesterday I loaded up some 140gr Hornady 6.5 creedmoor using H4350.

 

[backyardtndeer]

Nothing lately. Been using most my free time sitting in a tree. Come January and February will be spending more time at my bench.

[Sniper23]

I've got a couple different 6.5 bullet varieties, but I'd love to find some Hornady 143gr ELD-X. I don't have any of those yet.

Yeah i have been searching for them for awhile now.

 

[fairchaser]

We had our last club match for the year yesterday, so I cleaned my rifle good and inspected my .308 brass for a signs of separation. Everything looked good after 4-5 firings, so I'll deprime and wet tumble to get it ready for next season.

I usually do my reloading in January and February.

Keep a watch at Scheels and grafs. I have managed to stock up pretty well on the 143 grain eldx. They run pretty close to the 140 grain match bullets I had been loading.

I have a lot of testing to do after deer season.

 

[Gad Father]

Loaded 10 280 AI that I fireformed from 280 Remington. 55 grains IMR4831 and a 160 grain ballistic tip. My gun loves them.

I just picked up the Fix rifle in 6.5 about a month ago. What a fine time for me to start trying load for a new caliber. I'm still waiting on the bipod and scope mount to arrive so I can get the scope mounted and zero'd. I've got some Hornady 140gr Match loaded up and ready for when everything else gets here.

 

[ROVERBOY]

I've not loaded any in a couple weeks. Last I loaded was some 185 gr. .45 ACP.

 

[7mm08]

I didn't do anything today, but did some loading yesterday. I loaded some 308 Win. 165gr GMX with 44gr Varget.

That's exactly what I push my 140g TSX 7-08 with!

 

[mr.big]

I did not catch it on fire and blow myself up, so it was a good day!!

 

[kornbread]

That's exactly what I push my 140g 7-08 with!

It shot the same hole twice then had a 1/2 inch to right flyer once barrel was hot. Group was still about .75 of inch.

 

[Deer Assassin]

look for reloader 19

 

[fullstream]

Just found 2lbs of varget and 150gn Berger's in .284. Might should get a lottery ticket lol

 

[WhiteJD4]

Started finally tinkering with the 6.5 Cred loads sierra 130gr. TGK just waiting on my crimp to arrive to finish fine tuning it and dial in the length for the Barnes 120gr. TTSX BT also loaded some 300BLK test rounds 125gr. Nosler Ballistic tips.

 

[FredRog72]

I finally got the time to load my dad some 7-30 Waters. We could only find 30-30 brass so I necked it down, loaded it up light and fire formed 50 rounds and then started all over loading the actuals. He wants to hunt with it so I loaded them up with 140 grain partitions over 33.6 grains of H335. It was a long but rewarding process. The only not so fun part was having to fire everyone of those through his Contender that kicks like a little mule! LOL.

 

[mr.big]

Loaded 150 6 mm BRA rounds with 68 gr bullets and H335 for a 200 meter group shoot Saturday
It will be the first time I've shot 68s from the BRA and IDK how it will hold up.

 

[backyardtndeer]

Walked past my bench this morning, and thought to myself that I really need to do a current inventory on what I have. Nah, can wait until the next rainy day.

 

[Deerhunter]

Well, I just got back home from a 3 day riding trip at Royal Blue. Before I left, my wife asked me to load her 12 rounds without powder or primers. And she needed 48 bullets. Didn't know for sure what she was up to, but when I got home today, I have a new clock over my reloading bench in the basement. Its something she saw on pinterest, but I think it turned out pretty cool.

 

[PickettSFHunter]

Loaded up 50 300 BLK today for the boy so he can ruin some hogs nights. 115 gr Lehigh Defense Controlled Fracture. 20 Gr CFE BLK. Starline Brass.
