Love the 158 grain for the .38 OB, I drop Bullseye or HS-6 (HS-6 the most consistent). Looking Good !

Do you find that pins can get stuck in the flash holes?

I get some that hide inside the case. None stuck in the flash holes.

Oh yeah, definitely have to dump the cases.

Just finished 107 45 colts, last of the clean ones.
There are about 2 dozen from the other afternoon that need cleaning.
These I loaded with 6.5 grs Red dot and some 190 gr swc. The bullets were free, a friend gave them to me year before last.
Nice little plinkers for the back deck. ;)

Just finished running 500 more 38 special thru the crimp die. Wish I had some more storage boxes.

Yeah, I’m running out of storage boxes too. Cleaned and prepped another 100 cases. Sized, belled and primed.

I ordered a batch of 125 grain plated flat point bullets. Trying something new to me. Looking for that elusive 2000 FPS round. Not a hunting load, just for fun. Paying $.15 each for bullets is annoying.

Everglades bullets providing the little fun pellets.
Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.
