Today was a lot of fun. I recently bought a “lot” off of Gunbroker of scraps where somebody sold their reloading gear. I bought 8 open boxes of bullets, 7 of which I can use. One box just happened to be .224 50gr ballistic tips, but there were only about 30 of them. I wanted to spend some time on the bench as it’s been nearly 2 years since I loaded anything so I got out yesterday and cleaned some brass, popped primers, and today rounded up the scraps from my .223 loading escapades where I have a dozen or two of each random bullet left over. But of course, when you want left alone a child will seek you out and crash your personal time party, but sometimes that’s OK. Daughter #1 came out first and was asking questions. I showed and explained, and she basically just took over. Then daughter #2 came out and could not be outdone nor could anything be done by her sister that she herself didn’t get involved in. And so, my girls today finagled their way into reloading their first rounds. They had a ball and learned a lot. They were Not at all happy when I said we had to stop after the box of ballistic tips was empty, but I hadn’t found a load of h335 for anything else yet, and they were starting to argue. Here are the little ladies at the bench.
