What did you do at your reloading bench today?

I finished trimming, resizing, flaring, 50 pcs , 45/70 Starline brass. Got 50 more to do, then drop all in the wet tumbler.
Think I'll wait until I get the bullets before priming. Looks like that's gonna be a while.
Not a problem, I've got plenty.

Bought a box of 1000 Winchester 205 shot shell primers for $60 at my LGS today. He posted he was getting powder, primers. 9 mil and 45 acp today. Powder and primers were for shotguns and saw 50 rounds of 9 mil for $31, but I don't need any and did not notice what brand. Place was filling up when I left.

Ernie, I was at my LGS today also. The shelves were pretty bare; no bullets, no primers and no powder. Bought a couple of .357/38 plastic cartridge holders and a can of Ballistol. Rick is hoping a bullet and powder delivery will come in next week. Primers, no clue yet.

Guns and ammo were pretty scarce. Had maybe 20 different powders, mostly shotgun, but the only primers today were 205 shotgun primers. Did have a used Uberti 1873 12 shot 22 pistol for $430. Nice shape but I really don't need one although it has my prints on it.

Noticed today, some of the online suppliers have some Hornady Flex tip bullets in stock. No idea how long it'll last. Better hurry.

Ordered 4 lbs. IMR 4198 from Hogdon direct. today. Thanks to a heads up from Jake.

Got 100 pcs Starline brass, trimmed, lubed, sized, flared, & in the wet tumbler. Can't do anymore until my bullets are shipped, which have been on BO since Jan. 12.

Edit: Cleaned & set aside til bullets arrive.

I'm going to load some .223 Remington later today. I've got about 250 small rifle primers left. I'm going to load about 25 I think.

My bench has been cleared till further notice ( no bullets). Did make the rounds of my online suppliers today. "Out of stock", the standard result. The only bullets available were the Hornady Flex tip stuff & the dangerous game type. Not a lot of T-Rex sightings here.

Well I finally scored a brick of Federal small pistol primers. The LGS had 60 boxes and posted on the Facebook page this morning. Paid through the nose vs. pre-COVID, $89.99, (OK, $90)! Also picked up a bottle of WST which I use for 45 ACP at a more reasonable $25.
Popular rifle powder is still scarce around here. That's getting to be my pinch-point now.
