Yesterday, took my press apart and cleaned everything. Greased the ram and pins and put it back together, most of the way. Somehow lost one of the spring washers. Spent the next hour+ looking for the washer and never did find it. Going to have to try to find something similar locally.

Was looking for the 100 new 45-70 Starline brass that I've had for a few years and it's here somewhere but what I found was 500 .224 Sierra MK 69gr HPBT

Ordered some of those from Scheels recently when they had them in stock, looking forward to trying them out. Had 2 boxes that I picked up locally, but thought I better get a couple more while I had the chance.

I finally sized and prepped over 100 300 WinMag cases this afternoon. Ready to prime.
Loaded up 100 300BLK with CFE BLK and 110 gr VMAX's. Supposedly the VMAX will hold together well at the lower 300 BLK velocities. I don't know but it's worth a shot into a hog or 3 to see.
Looking forward to seeing some pics Steven!
Got 15 300wm to try at my next session. Loaded 57 223 the other day using up some pull down powder. Got my oldest to help with 9mm over the weekend.
172 WinMag cases primed this afternoon.
Had help knocking out some 9mm this evening

Good looking help you got. Nice shadow box also.
Flag was from my FILs funeral.

This has taken place over the last 12 days. Been running the 1050 pretty hard. Have gone thru almost an 8 pound keg of BE-86. Operational security keeps me from posting a pic of the final results but as expected- I can't lift the box! Hensley and Gibbs mold with Prismatic powder Matt Tundra powder coat.

I loaded my first 7mmRM rounds in IMR7828ssc. RL-22 is great for my other 7mm, but only so-so in my new one. Still searching for the magic load.

Finished up on my 70pcs of grendel to arc Lapua brass. Now just need to run it through a wash cycle to clean out any brass shavings.
Had my accurate 2520 come in as well as 250 more pieces of 6.5 grendel, starline this time. Will be made into 6arc. It's like Christmas came late.

I went out for a little while and froze, then I came back in.
