Reloading

Post by scotland »

well... I guess it is time to start reloading. I finally got a 1000 rds of 9mm deprimed, cleaned and sorted and also 1000 rds of 45acp. My shipment of Berry's bullets arrived. Never used them but the price was good and for plinking, I think they will work. Been quite on the board, so I though I would post something!

Sounds like busy work has keep you busy. I've shot a few EXTREME plated but not any of Berry's. Ther 45s didn't work out for me but that was in an ElCheapo 45/410 single shot pistol w/more land than groove. I kave 2 boxes of them for 38/357 they shot about the same any other jacketed.

Good luck with the reloading and shooting. I've got to get started reloading something so I can quit my outside work! It has been slow here.

A friend of mine has a .223 Remington AR 15, he does not reload so I am going to help him develope a load for it. Hot darn! It will be fun. He picked up the primers and powder (he got a 8 pound can of my favorite, IMR 8208 XBR) and I found a couple thousand Varmint Nightmare bullets and have 500 cases coming.

I'm looking forward to the project and loading the amunition for him.

So you all are still alive! Ditto on a busy summer. I need more of me. School is starting soon and I am not even close to getting all of my projects done.

I need to get busy also but just cant seem to get back in the saddle yet.
But that's OK, I will as soon as my brain say's it's OK. Hey, we all
need some time to relax & reflect every now & then & I for one am
way over due. Besides that, my little loading room cave could sure
benefit from a good going through & reorganization? LMAO

Good luck Larry !

Its never done me a bit of good to clean up......well maybe a little . I did ''find'' about 300 270 brass I had forgotten about for a 280 AI like wildcat of someone elses creation. And 2 more ammo cans of shot. Data sheets for 15000 herters wads.......a parts kit for a MEC 600..... Maybe I should have done this sooner.
