Did Santa visit your reloading room?

2000 pcs of .45ACP brass, 2131 pcs of 9mm brass, 2000/9mm projectiles, and 1000 .45 ACP projectiles. :D

I'm set with the powder and primers, so I'll have a little something to do in my "spare" time for the next few weeks. :cool:

And a cartridge in a bear tree...;)

Merry Christmas everybody!
 
8lbs of Powder carried on the sleigh and about 4k Missouri Bullets enroute.

Very excited to load 'em up.
 
Yup, Santa did stop by this year:

I want one of those beer holsters.

I got a Dillon Super 1050 and a RT 1200 trimmer this year.
 
No reloading gear this time, but a nice Larue LT-104 scope mount, is on its way:cool:

I talked Santa into an RCBS Trim Mate, that is a pretty slick setup. I already prepped 100 pcs of 22-250 brass with it.
 
Lee Deluxe 9mm Carbide die set and a 500 count box of Missouri Bullet 125g SmallBall.

Just finished the first 3 batches to test about 5 minutes ago.
 
My son handed me a $100 bill, and said let's go to the computer now.

I ordered a Digital Pro Chrony from Midway and should have it before my new bullets come in.

"Life is good!"
 
In a round about way Santa provides....bought Santa suit six years ago. Over the years word of mouth gets around and I now play Santa at company Christmas parties, private homes, and family parties. The income from these excursions gets bigger every year.....this year will result in a second fully loaded Dillon 650.
 
Santa delivered some green stuff convertible to whatever I want, so I've ordered a Lee Classic Cast press, the conversion bushing from Hornady which will let me convert it to accept the Hornady LnL bushings, a couple of extra LnL bushings, and a scope for my M4.

It was a good day. :)

Now I wait, wait, wait for the big brown truck of happiness to show up at my door.
 
Santa, Looked at the junked up reloading room and said he wasn't going in there he might get lost. LOL Hey Rembrandt, I may have to get a Santa suit, probably the only way I will afford a 650!
 
Santa

Brought a new to me S&W Model 24 3" 44special and tomorrow when I go to the VA hospital in Shreveport, LA. I'm going to ease by Bass Pro Shop and check it out.

Think of it as a long term investment, by the time you get all the accessories, a good outfit runs about $500+......with a little advertising you easily pull down $1000-$2000 during the holidays. That always helps the reloading budget.

A true bud gave me a fully-loaded, factory direct Dillon 550.

From my single-stage mentality, it looks like something built by aliens with engineering degrees.

As soon as my new house is finished and my gun cave is in order, my true bud's punishment (no good deed goes unpunished, ya know) will be to help me set up the 550 and show me how to run 'er. This punishment will be exascerbated with the finest ribs on earth, courtesy of Mrs. Shnook, and more miscellaneous other gastronomic ambrosias than either my true bud or Mrs. true-bud are capable of resisting.

HAH! That'll fix 'em!:)
