What Did You Reload Most Recently?

[frosty]

Loaded 50 rnds of .45 auto - 25 with Clays, 25 with universal. Then loaded 25 9mm with #5 and 25 with blue dot.

 

[Davwingman]

About 300 38 specials with a 158 gr. cast RN.

 

[Beans]

Just finished up 1400 rds of 45 ACP, 200 Gr LRNFP, 3.5 grs of bullseye, mixed range brass and WLP primers.

 

[acl864]

100 9x18 Makarov using 9MM Luger cases resized and trimmed to fit w/ 95 gr. LRN and 3.7 gr W231 powder. I've got 100 357 Mag cases prepped and ready to load- probably use 5.3 gr Universal with TVB 158 gr LSWC.

My latest and most consistant reloads.

Since I shoot cowboy action with revolvers in 357 and a Marlin in 38 Special, guess what I have been loading. I attempt to keep on hand at least enough rounds to last the best part of a year so that means keeping between 7 and 8K rounds on the garage shelves. I normally wait until I shoot 1,000 rounds before going into the garage to get busy with the loader, so about one weekend every five or so weeks I take a day and spend it in the garage, listening to beach music and loading 38s. My loads range from 3.7 grains of Win. 231 to the same of Tight Group. When I am up to snuff on the 38s it is time to get back together with the MEC to keep the SxS happy.

I thought I was doing well when I loaded up about 600 .38 Specials.
They are lasting pretty well although my wife, daughter, daughter's boyfriend, son and I shot up some of them on steel plates today. [

I also shoot SASS (since 1988, Membership # 316) I use Starline 45 Schofield brass, 200 Gr LRNFP, 5 grains of Trailboss and WLP primers.

I started loading them today. 2000 rd total needed, only 1500 more to go.

Friday night I loaded 50, .45 AR, R-P brass with Missouri Bullet Co 230 gr "Softball" LRN, over 5.8 gr of Unique with Win LP primers. I shot them yesterday out of my 1937 Brazilian. Very happy with this load.

I've used that load, or one with just a whisker less powder, in .45 ACP reloads for years.
It works in autoloaders, revolvers, and has also been shot successfully in a few Reising submachineguns.

Beans, I shoot 38 spl with 3.7 grains of Win. 231 behind either a 125 trun or a 105 trun bullet. Due to the primer problems I have used an assortment of small pistol primers from CCI (only used for revolver) to win, federal and federal mag, all in small pistol. I know some of the purest will cringe at the array of different primers, however, at SASS loads I have never been able to tell the difference.

Shooting at SASS ranges and SASS sized targets, I don't really think primer brands makes any difference. Use what you can get.

Today I loaded 100 rounds of .44 Russian - Starline cases - Winchester LP primers - 4.5 grains 231 - Xtreme 200 grain copper plated bullets.

Next I'm loading some 9mm for my girlfriend's Beretta 92.

Next weekend we're planning on doing some shooting.

 

[mnhntr]

just finished 250rds of 357magnum 200 JHP and 50 LSWC using A#5 and Federal primers

 

[38-44HD45]

9x23 Win. I'm working up a load with Speer 125gr. Gold Dots (the bullet they load in factory .357 Sig). I've only started my testing, but my initial load with WSR primers and 8.7 gr. of Viht N350 looks promising, with an average 5" barrel velocity of 1488 fps. and a very low ES.

 

[MrPhil]

More 308. Working up a new powder. Today was a great day to shoot.

 

[kennyb]

last night...100 rounds of 44 mag.and 50 rounds of 41 mag.

 

[NKJ nut]

Just some run of the mill, mainstream stuff. 8mm Kropatschek.

 

[scattershot]

A friend just gave me a 12 pound keg of red Dot, so guess what I'm developing loads for?

Last night, I reloaded 100 rounds of .45 Colt with 255 grain LRNFP bullets over 6.5 red Dot.

About 830 FPS, and seems like a good load so far. I tried 10 rounds with the same load using a Dacron filler, and it upped the pressure without any corresponding increase in accuracy, so I won't be using the Dacron with this load.

 

[Dan Cash]

.30 Mauser with Unique and CCI primers under 100gr Speers.

 

[Don K.]

+p .44 Special - 250 K. over 15.5g. 2400 in WW cases with Wolf L.P. primers. Shoots and feels great. My chrony is on the blink (no I didnt shoot it . . . , honest), anyone have an estimate of velocity for this load in 3" barrel? It's more "energetic" than Skeeter's 7.5g. Unique, but more mild than the 18.5g. of Lil'Gun in Special cases, which clocks @ 1078fps out of my 3" 29.
