DG... I got caught up on your reloading center which is more than a bench. Great job on that and it looks well setup!

Made enough space for me to sit at the CPU along with cleaning off my firearms workbench.

Loaded some test .38 Special loads with ACME 158 gr. RNFP coated bullets and IMR Red powder.

Nice, what powder are you using for the 147 grain?

Looking at my book, i'll likely load 6.2grns of 3n37 for the 115grn hap

Went out to the shop, took a look and went right back into the house. The heck with it today. LAZY day today. I'll tackle some handloads tomorrow. Probably some ,357's with coated 158 and 180's. Lounge lizard today.

My wife threw pigeons for me today.
I butchered them clay's ! (well most of them). I found three boxes of reloads in the garage last month and thought I would burn em up. After the first two rounds, took a closer look. Thought they were T&S loads with #8, upon closer inspection of the box, turns out they were duck loads that I loaded in 1972. 50 years and still kicking !
They all ran through the Beretta W/O a hitch. Just a little hot for clay's.

r-n-g, I've tried to get my wife to toss clays in the desert. It didn't go well! Most would hit the dirt about 10 feet in front of her. Oh well.

Well RT, you got me, I lied. The Wife had the switch for the Champion workhorse clay thrower. She sat in the shade with the switch while I yelled PULL ! ! !
Good news though, no bloody nose from the skull fracture, appears to be all headed up.
