What do have waiting for you in the reloading room?

Where do I start???

Couple 1,000 .223 need cleaning but I have several 1,000 that need trimming, and several 100 that need loading.

That said, I have another shotgun event Thursday and need to load some more shotgun shells.

Can always use more 9mm but that’s on the back burner for a while/

I need to analyze both the .243 and 22-250 ladders I shot a month ago and decide if I’m gonna play with either of those, or try another powder. And with the 22-250, do I just scrap that bullet and start with the 70 gr Barnes I bought to hunt in California with?

I really need to figure out which.357 load works best in the carbine I bought last year.

I guess I need to lock myself in the “room” and only come out for meals for a couple of weeks.

Starline called me yesterday and let me know 500 more .32 H&R Mag cases are being shipped. I’ll need to prep and prime those soon.

Stay safe..

150 308 brass that need primed. Got de-railed on another project. Got some .357 Mag and 9mm that need to be cleaned.
Also have to deal with a dust problem with the Frankford Arsenal walnut tumbling media. That stuff is awful for dust.
I'm thinking I'm going to throw it away and start using Lyman Tuffnut in my vibratory instead. It doesn't dust up like this stuff. I use Tuffnut in my rotary and it works well but it does stick in the flash holes.

Take down the tables and grow lights. It doubles as the starting room for the garden veggies. Yes I get huge yields of peppers and tomatoes every yr. Ill be a canning fool end of next month

Time to reload, I'm retired and my wife works a part-time job. What's the next easy question, it's past my bedtime?

Got my order of Sierra V-Crown bullets in today, maybe tomorrow night I can start with some 90 gr 9MM and 165gr 40's.

I have a bucket of brass waiting to be sorted and cleaned. I also need to get busy with my casting sessions. Tire guy is filling another 5 gallon bucket of WW's for me.

Not so much in the "room" as I cast bullets outdoors.
No hurry, I will get that done this fall.
357, 44 mag and new to me 45.
Have a new six cavity mold (and lubri-sizer) to cast 255 grain 45's that is bugging me to put to use.
Will be breaking in a larger ladle with the mold.

Suuurrre, growing garden vegetables!

I haven’t yet decided on whether to sort by headstamp and introduce into my rotation a newly acquired batch of 45ACP cases or keep them in reserve.

Read about lyman m die expanders on THR and bought .45 acp , worked great so purchased 9mm and .357 .
They just arrived today and looking forward to trying them out in very near future..

A ton of unfinished work. And I’m adding 10mm SAA load, the cambered is very tight!

I'm trying to quit procrastinating so I'm back over on the "what have you done in the reloading room" thread. But it's still not much.

This AM went to range then cabelas where I bought a Lyman flash hole uniformer. So, waiting for me is decapping/sizing the 9mm & 45acp I shot today, then uniforming the flash holes with my new gizmo before the cases get wet tumbled.

Have no clue when I’m going to do any of this.

Clever

Received my order of 6.5 Grendel brass from Nosler. Starline never seems to have any. No matter, I don't need 6.5 Grendel.
What awaits me is resizing these 150 new cases to 6mm ARC, which is easily done...as 6mm ARC brass is even more of a unicorn than 6.5 Grendel brass.
I was finally able to get some CFE-223 powder, so now I can begin to think about shooting my nearly complete MSR in 6mm ARC.

this morning at the Reloading work station. Consider buying a Dillion Powder Check Die. don’t know why I’m going through this progressive phase of my life. But I really need to get this off my chest, like I been hiding in a closet.

I’m going to do it!!!

Well, a 3lb Folger's coffee jug almost full of .38 spl brass, once shot. Lordy, between those and all the .45 acp cases I find in the shop, that's whats waiting for me to do.
Heh-heh, actually can't wait. Keeps me away from the TV.

Well, this is Michigan, so I guess I could pretty much grow whatever I want. There's enough of those grows out in my area, 4 within a mile. Somebody's Makin some $$, although I'd probably be pushing my luck with 160 acres full

I tumbled a 3# coffee can of 223 yesterday and layed them out to dry overnight. I'll be sorting them by headstamp after while and putting them away.

Wonder if you can use your grill to heat up the brass so it would dry the inside of the brass? humm??

Yeah and everyone at the range will be distracted by the smoky odor wondering what powder is he using? Mesquite 231?
