Good to hear Al, wonder why the 41's cycle a longer cartridge than the 44's?

Decapped some .223 brass and then into the wet tumbler. First 600 yd F Class practice is March 18th so I had better get going....... :D

You tumbler looks like mine. Did you add those two gray bands on the bucket, or did you do that yourself? Good idea, may add that to mine. Better traction.
Yes I did, it’s self adhesive grit tape. I was getting too much slippage and this made a great difference.

Before I go to bed I'm going to load a handful of 44's just so I can ring the BYG in the morning that I couldn't this morn. :D

Sized and flared a bunch of range pickup aluminum 9mm cases for one time, medium power, let 'em fly loads for on the run jackrabbit chasing on the desert!

Well I didn't do them before I went to bed.
So I did 12this morning, that was all the prepped brass I found.
Need to fire up the tumbler I guess.
19.3 grs 2400 and a 240 gr hp.

From the looks of all the empty tumbled brass I have on the bench, I better get started soon.
