Well after the discussions on new brass, tarnished bullets and scales and balances, I finally got to load a few test rounds.

Had to take wifey to the arts and crafts show which actually turned out OK. I got a wood inlay (Marquetry )picture of a schooner at full sail. Guy is from Finland. 107 pieces of wood and 22 species. Anyway, I digress.

21.6 grs 2400
CCI LPP
New Rem Brass
the infamous belmished 180gr bullets XTP?
Lee factory crimp/post size set to medium.

Anyway, I'll try them in the 629 and the Marlin lever action.
