Well we just got 10 inches of snow here in nothern Wisconsin, Happy Easter. So before the ham, I made a media seperater out of a 5 gallon bucket and a smaller bucket that spins on a pipe that goes through the smaller container that I drilled full of holes. Works great. Happy Easter to all.

I loaded up some .38+P loads, 158 gr Nosler, for the S&W 14. Also loaded up some .44 mag loads using Nosler 200 gr. I've not loaded them before and made up about 20 of them to test out.

ordered a 45 caliber RCBS bullet puller collet from Midway .... I was somewhat surprised to find neither Bass or Cabela's off it .... cheaper from Midway paying shipping than from Amazon on Prime

I find a lot of reloading stuff cheaper on eBay and usually with free shipping. I check out Midway, Midsouth, Amazon, and eBay before ordering and then pick the least expensive with shipping. I just ordered a L.E. Wilson Cartridge Max Gage in .44 mag from ebay with free ship cheaper than the others.

I've bought quite a bit from ebay over the years.

Just struck a deal with a member of another gun forum for 200 pcs of 45 colt once fired and cleaned brass for $30 shipped.
