Well it's a new year...........

I have a new 308 build and another rifle in 223 that I rebarreled that I will need to work loads up for. Both calibers are easy to load for and are very forgiving so it shouldn't be a big deal. I have loaded for these calibers long enough that I know what usually works and I know what I want them to do. A 223 and a 308 with standard twist (1-10 in the 308 and 1-9 in the 223) barrels just aren't hard to find loads for.
 
I did more reloading in '20-21 than probably the previous 6 or 7 years combined. Luckily, I had built out a reloading room in January of '20 and fully stocked it up by the beginning of March. At the time I figured I had plenty of components to last a number of years. But, seems the more I load, the more I want to load...test out new things and such. So, for '22 I'm hoping to restock....and to create a lot more empty brass:D. Thats probably the #1 goal, is to get out and shoot more:)
I think I've hit the accuracy limit that I can achieve with my Lee equipment...which isn't bad. But to take that to the next level, I would probably have to invest in some new tools and better components...bullets mainly. So for now, I'll keep cranking them out on what I have...unless I really start getting into bottleneck rifle cartridges
 
Well its a new year and my plan is to spend my reloading time making my ammo to be more precise. There's no excuse to not make each round with as much quality as your skills allow.
So what reloading thing are you going to do going forward?
I’m considering putting up a permanent open covered pavilion in the back so I can reload without worrying about a sudden rain.
 
I plan to come up with a super accurate load for my savage axis 223 with some RMR MPR’s and shoot out the barrel. Maybe work up a load for the ruger gp-100 out to 150 yards.
 
My plan (hope) is to shoot some of the rounds I have reloaded in the last 2 years, assuming primers and powder start showing up.

Reloading, I need to work up a load with SPPs or my .357s if I can't find any SPMs - running low on those.

I also have some large pistol Magnum primers bought when they were the only LP primers available then found some LPPs, might work up some .45 ACP or .45 colt loads with those as well since I have them. Maybe even try them with some BP .45 Colt loads to see how they do.
