What are you loading for New Years?

[RussellD]

I am going to bring the New Year in loading for .32 S&W Long.

My favorite load is the Penn 100 grain DEWC, ahead of 1.7 grains of WST and a Federal primer. Makes shooting the j frames fun and hits to point of aim.

Will probably crank out 100 rds of .38 Special - 148 gr Speer HBWC over 2.7 gr of Bullseye.

I'll be loading my .88 cal. muzzle loading cannon with a 1/2oz of FFFg and newspaper wadding. Most satisfying.

That time of year I usually load..............
shot glasses.

I promised my reloading gear some time off, for their good work.

[Petrov]

I will load myself with cherry wine and mead, will attempt to go and load some ammo only to be told by wife that the "fun" room is off limits when I am drunk

 

[MikeyB]

Planning to crank out a bunch of .45acp on the Dillon.

Today is devoted to 357 Magnums, did the 40 and 45 ACP last weekend. Just finished up a couple of 25 rounds test lots featuring Accurate #9. First is a 140 grain XTP with 12.5 grains that I've used in the past in my handguns but I'm curious how accurate it will be in my 1892 so I made 25 rounds to test the accuracy in the rifle. Then I loaded up another 25 using the 158 grain XTP with 11.1 grains of #9 for the same purpose. What I am looking for is whether I can match the accuracy of my rifle specific loads using H110 with my handgun loads featuring Accurate #9. BTW I don't like the excessive flash and BAAHOOM of H110 out of a handgun and have found that #9 give a moderate flash load without that booming report.

Then since I'll be shooting the 1892 this weekend after lunch I'll load up 50 rounds each of my standard rifle load using H110 with the 140 and 158 grain XTP's.

We are having a party of 17 over for New Years.

Several of our guests will get loaded.

 

[smokindog]

I thought California had a maximum 10 guest capacity when loaded

if you spread the event to multiple rooms, they count as separate mags

 

[fredj338]

Maybe some 45acp, but most likely I'll be bullet casting &/or smelting scrap, perfect cold weather task.

 

[Dan Christopher]

If I am feeling froggy tomorrow...and not suffering the effects of too many martinis tonight, I am planning on rolling some 44 Mag plinkers: 240gr cast bullets pushed by 7.5grs of Unique.

That's my standard light fun-for-the-range load for 44 Mag.

 

[Just another 22 shooter]

Found some old Remington 125gr .357 semi jacketed hollow points I'll be loading on top of HS6 for some middle of the road 357 mag loads. Probably will blow the dust off the 586 and shoot a few of them, too.

 

[gaijin]

Actually just finished a few hundred .45 ACP on the 650.
Hoping to get to the range Friday if the windchill is above zero........
Did I mention I loathe winter?

 

[randyp]

Just received some .357 sig dies from Midsouth today. Will give a few of those a try tomorrow plus maybe some .45 and .380 to round things out. Happy New Year to all of those loading themselves.

 

[ChiefStealth]

Finally "finished" my Lee reloading press setup by adding the Safety Prime and Pro Auto-Disk Powder Measure. Will spend much of tomorrow cranking out 9mm and .45 ACP.

 

[fla_gun]

well I just finished prepping 750 5.56X45 cases so.....

 

[birdshooter]

Loaded some .45 Colt earlier today. Hoping to load up a coyote or two tomorrow. Taking my nephew.

I've got a single shot I'm loading with Glenfiddich in a bit, no flash, no recoil but has a heck of a kick.

Tomorrow I'll be loading some 200gr SWC with a healthy dose of SR4756 for my 1911. This is my new favorite load after trying it at the range today.
