So I'm not totally insane. I was not offended I just thought I had really messed up with a confused outlook on the title.
As penance, I'm going to go out and deprime some military 9mm that was given to me.

Delete my nonsense please.
What did you do today GG?
Guess I'm as, or more, guilty of "thread drift" than anybody. I like this place and the folks on it so when we get ta' goin' it's like talking to friends and very easy (for me at least) to get off the reloading track and just talk about life in general. Like others I'm sure, I have a lot more going on than reloading that I like to share because that's what friends do...however, I'll try to keep that under control from here on.... and no offence taken by me for anything said..

Rained again today so I did up 180 45 ACP 230gr berrys. Middle of the road plinkers. Little bullseye and 800x. Found some bullseye in Sheel's sport store so can use it for more than just 38 WC's now since I was hoarding my last pound for them.

Well, the 380's with the Berry's shot well. So well in fact that I spent yesterday depriming and getting a bunch of case ready for cleaning. Tonight I'll start the tumbler and Monday will start reloading them.

Re: What Handgun Reloading Did You Do Today?
Decapping 380s today, prime them this evening. Do to some pretty serious surgery on the Feb 3rd I am trying to get back among the living and do some stuff.
Today is the first day since February 3rd that I have been able to pull a lever on one of my presses. Happy Days! (Reading this forum really helped me get by a lot times.)
A good friend of mine has a 8 pound powder can and another part full of 380 cases for me. By my calculations that is somewhere around a lot. Should keep me busy for a while prepping them. But I will be having the dreaded 32 auto and 9mm case problem a plenty before they are done.
I want to shoot rifle some but I have a hard time just shouldering my Henry 45 and I know I am to tender to shoot it. So me and the Marlin 39A are going to get reacquainted next week. I am going to blow through 22s just having fun. Couple more months and I should be clear up to speed, maybe even start teaching a few people about handguns again.
Like I said, Happy Days! And God does exist.

Re: What Handgun Reloading Did You Do Today?
I picked up that powder can full of 380 cases. Turns out it's not full, but I would guess more than a thousand was in it. Got them polished and will start prepping them today. Hot Dang! something to do!
I am looking forward to loading them on the Loadmaster as much as shooting them. And them I get to load them again.
