Loaded some hunting ammo for my brothers Garand using 150gr Hornady Interlock, they're loaded to same spec as the Hornady 150gr FMJ I made him and they shot well. Although his Garand isn't a primary hunting rifle he wanted the option just because it's "Merica damnit"
Hmm. I haven't shot my 30-06 in a spell. That Ruger No. 1B needs the exercise! I don't believe I've shot it since 2012; the last year I hunted deer or elk.
That needs to be taken care of.

Not handloading, but, at the bench. Took apart and cleaned my 12ga semi-auto after a day of trap with a buddy. Shot everything just fine, but, that inexpensive Wal-mart ammo[Fed] is dirty! Don't really care, it works, busts clays and I have a bunch from a few years back. Been a while since I've shotgunned anything. Felt good. Cleaned and put away. Beer time!

Cheers RT, I hope to bust some clays next week. Just picked up three cases of white flyers from Walmart for eight bucks each.

^^^^^^^^^

Yeah, I like to set some clays out at 100 or so and shoot them with an AR. Shoot the clays and then shoot the pieces until they are too small to see.

Oldbrass, that’s a very clever dryer box. Might have to steal that idea.
