Well this morning I loaded a few rounds for the MX, then
I cleaned primer pockets, neck sized, and primed 70+ 45 colt cases.
After lunch, yep ate it at the bench also. :lol:
Then I built that lower. :o ;)
It has finally stopped raining.

Not so much as did anything at the bench, but, I did add another box of 250gr RNFP Missouri bullets to the bench and a couple of ammo boxes. My local handloading store had loads of Missouri bullets, so picked up some this morning. I'll be back at the bench Monday.

I loaded up some 40 S&W to take to the range. Shot them in my Ruger PC 40 and they shot very well had 2 different powder charges. Also shot the 357 today it functions like its supposed to. So now I have a 158 gr Rose Bullet and the Rifletom 180 load. Gonna work on some 41 mag stuff in the future.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Sounds interesting, with some variety.
The FA's what's that got 7.5, 8.5 inch barrel?
I took a nice little doe with 6.5" 41 BH several years ago.
