I've had to set the bench aside, while working on a boat motor. Durn thing has a mind of it's own, and I'm not a mind reader. Makes me wish for some C-4.
I rarely ever buy a rifle, but when I do, it's a Henry.

C-4, that'll certainly fix one problem! Good one.

Probably no work at my loading bench today. Out side jobs need done with this nice weather we are having. A couple days back I loaded 150 rounds of 223 Rem. and 150 rounds of 222 Remington. Only loaded 50 for the 220 Swift but have more cases ready to load. I also found enough time to set my loading press up out side on the back porch and swage the primer pockets on almost 1000 late issue military LC cases. They were worked on two different days before finishing them up. Swaging them is a pain. I have several thousand of the LC military cases that need swaged but that will be a winter project. Maybe I can get my grandson to do some of them. ;) :D

Nothing right now. My ammo cabinet is full of various calibers but do have some full coffee cans of .45 Colt .44 Mag and .357 brass that need cleaning.

Emptied brass, .38, .357, 45 Colt and 45-70 . . . . Yup, mys son and his family came out for a few days, so set up the range and emptied brass.

I asked for their assistance to help me empty brass so I have something to do in the next few weeks !

Oh, also, took a 258 yard shot with the 45-70, Proper elevation and Ill be if I didn't hit the target !
