What Did You Reload Most Recently?

.243's, It will take a bit, I have 350 rounds to reload to replenish what I shot on the last Prairie Dog shoot three weeks ago. Also 200 rounds of 22-250. Had to look around to fine the 55 gr Nosler's, Midway was Out Of Stock, no backorder but found them at Powder Valley. The .243's will get 70 gr. Nosler's. Both over a sufficient quantity of Varget.
 
Yeah, the pins should be flying!

I used to shoot pins at the Second Chance Bowling Pin Shoot.
Used a .45 ACP with 230 grain round nose lead at the start and a .41 Magnum with 210 grain LSWCs toward the end. The flatnose bullets from the .41 shoved the pins off the table quicker and they left in a cloud of splinters!



We don't shoot them off tables anymore, takes too much time and effort to walk down and set them back up....LOL.

What we do now is to hang them by eyehooks from shepherds hooks in front of the berm. You can tell instantly when you hit them, you don't have to go downrange and set them back up and they last a long time(except when hit with the .460). We get them for almost nuttin' from the local alley so it also makes for a cheap shoot. My sons and I have a competition from 40 yards, where we have 20 seconds to empty the cylinder/magazine. Hits count as one, misses as none and hittin' the cord above and makin' them drop is -2. Hittin' 'em the first shot is easy, but hittin' them as they wildly swing from the previous hit makes it tough. We mix guns(.22, .357, .44, 45, .460) and all shoot the same amount of rounds outta each gun. The one with the most points at the end of the day wins braggin' right till the next time.
 
Just a week or two ago I reloaded about 350 38 special rounds with 148 grain wadcutters over 3.3 grains of Bullseye.

There's quite a range of calibers mentioned in this thread.

I did switch to .45 hardball loads in nickeled cases, as long as the presses were all set up for .45. I used up the bag of 100 Winchester 230 grain FMJs that was lying next to the loading table. Now I need to figure out where I put the other bags.
 
The .250 is one of my favorite rifle rounds. I've killed most of my deer with a Ruger 77RL in .250.
It's one of the rifle rounds I need to get to during this reloading binge.
 
Friday I loaded 100 pieces of .40 S&W over SR-4756, a mix of 180 gr FP and 180 gr HP/XTP. Yesterday I put together 60 pieces of 5.56/.223 using M193 55 gr FMJ and ARMSCOR 62 gr FMJ. Absent W-748 and Varget I am testing loads over H-335 and AA-2460, both of which are available here. I also found a brick of CCI #400 primers so, life is good. :)

Just finished up 50 .38 Specials using 3.5 grains of Bullseye and my own cast Lyman 358439, which is the HP version of the 358429. I also loaded 50 more using the same powder charge and the Lyman 358311, the 160 grain LRN. I use these in my pre-14.
 
Just loaded 500 rounds 9mm on my dillon square deal. Used 124gr rn bullets I cast and some of the 10 pounds of IMR pb that I got for $11 a pound. Also 400 rounds .38spl with 147gr swc with ww231.
