What did you do at your reloading bench today?

[dasmoeturhead]

Tumbled some mixed brass. Haven't even sifted it yet.

[Vaquero]

Sized some 357 brass, was going to do some 44's but, no hurry for them.
Probably load those 357 this evening.

Stared at the bench for about 5 seconds, went back in the house and watched "Saving Private Ryan". What a movie! Then homemade chicken enchiladas. Gooood!

Yep, that's a darn good one for sure.
Tom, mine is in the man cave so I walk by it every day, several times a day

I don't have any more room in my ammo cabinet for reloads; I need to shoot more. Recently, I bought a set of dies dedicated to .38 specials (so I won't have to adjust my .357 dies anymore - just cuz) and a powder trickler to make weight adjustments quicker. I always weigh each round and had used a small dipper to tap flakes of powder into the pan, which was often time consuming.

[fortyshooter]

Cranking out more .357 180's and noticed I'm on my last pound of 2400 powder!

[Grunt67]

Finished up a batch of 50, 9mm. Got about 400 more empty brass. Think I'll let it rest for a while. Waiting on a part for my press, then start on some 45/70.

[Vaquero]

No loading today, but I did change the grip frame on the 45 Vaquero, it's now a bird's head.
Gonna search flea-bay, and see if I can find something I like.

I usually get powder at the Reloaders Bench in Mt. Juliet, distance about 1/2 hr or so, one way. In there yesterday. Of course, I usually come out with a bag full of other stuff. Can't seem to break that habit, LOL.
