Sized and deprimed 150 308 brass putting in the tumbler in the morning.
Hope to load 15 or so and do some ladder testing this weekend and get to loading.

6.5 Creedmoor, 147 gr Hornady ELD Match, 43.7 gr of Staball 6.5, Lapua brass. Loaded 10 using CCI Mag small rifle primers and 10 using Sellier & Bellot. I will use a MagnetoSpeed chronograph and see how much primers affect SD & ES.

I want to try some pistol bullets in my 35 for plinking loads. I have been gathering some data from various places. Have yet to load any though.

Tell me about your 35 rem load
I have a couple that work well in my Marlin 35. H335 loaded near max at 37 grains with a 200 gr core-lokt has been the most accurate for me. My other go to is also 37 grains of 4064. Not as accurate as the H335, but more than adequate for deer at 35 ranges. And I have a good supply of 4064. H335 has been difficult to find locally for some time now.

Looking forward to seeing the results. I've had some good results using StaBall 6.5 with the 153 gr Atips also.

CCI Mag Small Rifle Primers: Avg. 2701, ES 51, S-D 15.5
Sellier & Bellot Small Rifle Primers: Avg 2696, ES 31, S-D 9
I have some more work to do. My goal is an ES under 20 with single digit S-D. But Sellier & Bellot was the better performer.

Ordered a resupply of Hammer bullets for my 280AI, then found the previous resupply that I had forgotten about. Now I'm good on that rifle for the rest of my life. I also ordered some Peterson 28 Nosler brass so I can start working on loads for another rifle.

Am out of 115 gr FMJ Armscor bullets for our 9's. Have a serious inventory completed but have empty brass which is illegal in nearly every state.

Looking for 2,000 under 8 cents each. I do not like Berry's or Hornady's offerings.

I can buy tons if I want to pay inflated prices but my inventory tells me I can wait.

If anyone sees anything PM me please and Thank You.
