To be honest, the last I reloaded was Thursday night! I think I am having withdrawal!



I did cast some H&G #290BB bullets tonight and water dropped them to see how that worked out. Also, broke my Modern Bond mold. Made me a little mad at myself! I'll have to see if one of those bolts can be had or if I need to make one. It was for the sprue plate. it is a D358-627, 160gr WC design.

I will load tomorrow though! Probably some of those 38 bullets over some kind of powder.

Sunday afternoon I made up 500 .38 Special for my 14-4, I'm planning on shooting them in this weekend and loading up 500 more, but I have to cast more bullets first.

7.0 grains of Bullseye under a ~260 grain bullet for my Model 29. It's an awesome load, with enough velocity to do everything I need it to, but it's not work to shoot. I've gotten over shooting the barn busters, though I do keep a box of Keith loads on hand.

I used to shoot pins at the Second Chance Bowling Pin Shoot.

Me too ACP 230! I shot there from 1982 thru 1988. I was single then and loved those Pin Setters, plus the girls from Texas Instruments coming to Kohn's Corner bar after work. Couldn't shoot for **** really but out shot several of those magazine writers / experts.
Lately I am reloading of all things, 38 Special. I keep running into 38/44 revolvers and found the 38/44 loads to be just about all I need for most varmits and long range target shooting.

Sunday I loaded 500 rounds of 130 gr cast bullets from the Bulletworks over 4.0 gr of Titegroup for shooting in my 642. I'm going to start shooting em up tomorrow.

Man I been loading 38spl. to shoot in my
S&W 15 & 19 can't beat that. don

In the last week I have loaded .357, .40 S&W, .30-30, .32-40, and am currently working on some .25-35's. Waiting for a shipment from TVB so I can load some .45 Colt and .41 Mag. I'm getting some of their .454's to try in my older model 25's with oversize throats.

Last thing I reloaded was a few boxes of .45ACP for an IDPA match. Even better, while packing the range bag for that match, I found a box and a half of .45s I didn't remember I had! It was like Christmas in June!

Prior to that, it was a box of .25-20WCF for dad's little levergun that I hope to inherit someday.

I am more than halfway through the prepped WCC match brass.
After it is done I may switch to loading hardball loads in nickel cases.
There's a plate match coming up early next month where I could use them.

Yesterday I loaded 300+ .44 Special rounds. 200gr LRNFP bullets over 6.2gr of Trail Boss, which gives me about 830 fps out of my 4" revolvers, for about 10 cents a round. It's good to be stocked up again. Plus the equivalent commercial ammo (assuming it could be found) would have cost me over $220...
