What did you do at your reloading bench today?

[Headhog]

Yesterday afternoon I ran a load of 41's through the tumbler.
This morning I was putting them up and sorting some more brass to be cleaned.
Moving this and that around.... I discovered a 2 lb., 2.5 oz. coffee can.
Upon opening I was surprised to find it about a third full of "primed" 45 acp brass.
Then I found a bag of 265 gr 44 cal. fn Hornady bullets. 60 pcs., I use them in the t-4's.

Now that's what I call a good day. I'll bet you put those bullets and brass in a safe place so you wouldn't loose them.

Well, I slide that brass back, and made a mental note.
Don't shoot them much at the moment as I don't have a pistol in that cal. at the moment.
Well except for the convertible BH.
The 265's went with the other 100 that I have, and knew where they were.
I do have a few of those loaded and on stand by.
But you are correct, was a nice find on both, and put a Big on my face.

Randy, this seems to happen to me also. Looking for one thing, stumble across something else that i forgot, but, can certainly use.
Scheese, go figure!

I have just the opposite problem, I go looking for something only to recall I already sold or traded it.

Vaquero, I will say that Halloween came a couple of days early for you. “Trick or brass/bullets”…

Went out to the shop to "organize" my ammo boxes. In other words, ammo only in ammo box, cleaning stuff in another box and tools in another box.
What a colossal waste of time that was! Finally put everything back like I've been doing for 47 years and know where everything is. Man cave stuff I suppose.

Put together 50 rounds of 308 Win. today. Found 25 cases that were already primed and 80 cleaned cases. So I sized the clean cases then check length. Only 7 needed trimming. After trimming primed up the 80 cases and proceeded to charge and finish the 50 rounds. Now I have 55 primed and ready to load cases, back on the shelf.

I walked down to the basement this morning, where my reloading bench is. Looked at the mess, and ran back upstairs, screaming like a 12 yr. old schoolgirl........

Added in EDIT: Here's what scared me. Obviously, "Organization" is not one of my keener skills......

.. Looked at the mess,...

Similar here though mine is in the garage. It gets piled with stuff going to and fro between the house and outside.

[Mr. Neutron]

Yeah, I definitely see how that happens, Mags.

The Hunting Seasons, and all the prep time beforehand, are hard on mah po ole reload bench. I run down there, find what I need and/or pile other and more stuff on the bench, then run off leavin' the mess.

It'll get cleaned up here shortly, after Elk season..... I hope......

A little TLC and you're back in business. What's the scope on the bench?
