Put together 200 rounds of 45 ACP with small pistol primers. Plan to take these to the range on Thursday and burn thru as many as I can. Not sure yet if 'I'll shoot paper of steel, but I'm leaning toward steel.

Just mounted a CT RAD pro (unexpected gift from my son) on my Shield Plus. Just need to take it to the range and sight it in. Never was interested in putting a red dot on a pistol, but it was optics ready and the CT was a gift so we will see. Easy install and co-witness the tritium sights.

I just plain need to get to the desert and empty some brass so I can load 'em back up! Lazy butt me, just making homemade beef jerky last couple weeks. House do smell good tho. 8-)

Yeah, me too. I have a portable shooting bench I take out to the public land to shoot from. I call it my “unloading bench”. :lol:

Cleaned some 45-70 brass that were loaded with black powder. The ones with the duplex loads burned a lot cleaner than those with straight FFG.
