Just wondering what you fine folks loaded and or shot today.

Personally, I shot my M25 -7, 45 Colt, with the hollow point version of my Mihec 45-270SAA over 9.0gr of Unique.


How about you?

Cleaning brass now and going to reload it later!

Bob,
What lube are you using? They look good too by the way!

DUH! 50/50! (tells self to read posts more carefully!)

I'm also going to make some with my alox/JPW dip lube to see if that's better, worse, or no difference. I'm thinking if this works as well as my .30-30 loads do then I may just use alox/JPW for all my cast loads. I need to make some time and cast some with the penta pins and the small round pins.
 
32-20, got the cases sized, primed and ready for the boolits...just gotta drop the powder, seat and crimp....
My ol' partner picked up a Martini cadet 310 today in great shape, and he is making brass from 32-20 brass, should be a fun project...
I will be reloading 38 and 44 spl over the holidays as well
 
Have not been out in 3 weeks but last time I shot my model 27 with two different loads. 148 bevel base wadcutters with 3.3 grains of bullseye in 38 special brass. Also shot 125 grain jhp on top of a stiff load of W296 in .357 brass those are some flame throwers.
 
I didn't do any loading today but last night I loaded some .45 ACP ammo with 6.2 grs. of Herco and a 225 gr. FP cast bullet and shot it this morning in my M-10. i also shot a Hi-Standard .22 Derringer...with 60 gr. SSS. :)
 
rain and wind

Howdy,
It is rainy and windy here today. Good day to load and eat soup.
I recently picked up a Rem. 600 in .223 (re-barreled) and am trying to make a 22-250 out of it. Loaded up 30 rounds, in ten round lots of IMR 3031, H 322, H 335.
As soon as the wind lays I'll see how they do.
Thanks
Mike
 
Something else, I'm currently working up .303 blanks. No real loading, just some trimming sizing and priming. I'm still researching the load.

Checked on my posting about 125 jhp and H110, thanks everyone for the help. Been looking to make some booooooming bullets for my .357, im starting to think Alliant products may be the answer. Drooled about loading bullets for awhile. Made arangements with Tony to come chronographing some time this weekend.

I have my final for accounting Thursday at 1, and profession selling at 6, so its been nothing but cramming credits, debits, and customer relationship management. Also stopped by the VA facility across the street and dropped off a Christmas card to my doctor thanking her for my life.
 
I was sizing a large accumulation of 30 caliber pattern of 1906
I have not determined exactly what Im going to load them with as yet ... but it may make for an interesting post here later;)
