What did you do at your reloading bench today?

[5shot]

My first .360 loads. I used Starline .30/30 brass. The powder coated cast bullets are light loads of Unique with the Lyman #358665 which are about 162 grains and sized .358". The jacketed are 180 XTP's over #5744 and should about duplicate a .357 Max for velocity. Tomorrow I'll pick up some Hornady 200 gr. round nose and start with CFE BLK powder for some full strength loads. I wanted to use the Speer 180 gr. but can't find them anywhere.

Looks good, will be waiting to hear how it went.
As far as those 180gr. Speer go, I haven't seen any in a while.
Was wanting to play with some in the 35 Rem.

At this stage of the game by the time I work up a good flinch the shot is already gone.

I picked this bad boy up, 250 + Lbs. I plan on putting my bullet molds, swaging dies, processed jackets in it for swaging, and if i have space, primers.

That’s a good looking cabinet. What do you suppose the original use was?

[DsGrouse]

My guess, government filing of old magnetic style tapes.

The drawers are crazy sturdy, the slides are heavy duty. Plus the drawers lock of a sort. You can only open one at a time. the rest have to be pushed in for one to open. So it won't tip over easily.
The plastic drawer locks


The whole drawer extends out.


The slides.

That's a mighty useful looking cabinet there DsGrouse. I'd like to find something like that myself.

I found a box of about 600 125 grain lead flat point 38/357 diameter by Falcon on the loading bnch. Each night I go to the bench to load up 50-100 rounds to use these bullets up. Austerity has come to the bench and am down sizing the amount of bullet styles I will keep ininventory.
