Loaded up 200 rounds of .223 Rem. Seems I always load rifle ammo on days when it too cold to go outside and play. Besides I've been burning up the .223 on my last few range trips with my AR-15 and Ruger Mini 14. :D

Picking up some Red Dot in a bit to load in .45 Colt and .45 acp. Something to try for the heck of it. This small store had 260 1lb bottles of Red Dot and 140 1lb bottles of Unique two weeks ago. 0 Unique left and 64 bottles of Red Dot left! On my way!

Just got back from lgs with my pound of Red Dot. two fellas in front of me each had 4 lb and some shotgun loading items like wads, shot. 95% of Rick's business is with shotgunners, but, caters to us all when he can. Oh, he has plenty of Missouri bullets on hand. That was good to see. Still no primers.

Loaded up some test loads for 32 H&R using Blue Dot and the Hornady 100gr XTP.

Funny story that I mentioned yesterday. Originally I intended to load up some 41 mags after a successful test with 2400. I went down to my reloading room and couldn’t find my fired brass. Looked all over and finally found it in my ammo cabinet already loaded up and ready to go. :roll: I’m suffering a severe case of CRS!

For target plinking in revolvers you might like the Red Dot in 45 Colt like 5-6 gr. with 200-250 gr. lead bullet.
