What do you have waiting for you in the reloading room?

[JmacD]

Which I have.....

Me too. I came up with it helping a poor kid get over a flinch that he instantly developed the first time he fired a handgun; and someone thought it would be funny to give them a out of the stratosphere HandCannon loaded to reverse the earths rotation!… It’s so fluffy it feels like the springs in the gun are going “boing”… but cycles reliably (in a full size sig 320) and is very accurate. Not to be confused with my favorite load, a max charge of autocomp pushing a 115 Hap…

 

[Walkalong]

Never? No autos?

One galesi 22 short pocket pistol that was my grandmothers. Rarely take it out. It’s 11 wheelers and that.

Oh my, if I was closer I'd give you one, just because, how do you function?

 

[shoebox1.1]

I’ve had a few nice ones..

 

[Walkalong]

I have another 100 new Starline cases to lightly chamfer, deburr, then size. When After I do those tomorrow I'll tumble all 200 to remove the lube.

 

[LV Gun]

I have 250 rounds of 454 Casull waiting to be loaded with W-296 , Hornady 250 grain XTP Mag bullets , Magtech SR primers in Starline and Winchester brass.

N frame- hot magnums?

View attachment 1263580

My last N-Frame is a .45AutoRim. A model 1917.

Hmmm… revolver, moon clips, boom but no wrist-breaking recoil…

Done! I’ll take Big Ugly.

 

[Walkalong]

I need to load some 300 BLK subsonic rounds for Tuesday, my cousin is coming in to town.

 

[GeoDudeFlorida]

Still working on inventory and up next is going to be clearing out some of the “stuff” we’ve been storing for no particular reason. The A/C and water heater have been needing to be replaced for some time and I’m not happy with the repair to the ceiling. My wife suggested we downsize and try turning the room into a new office just for me. I asked what about my current office and she said, “Oh, I think we should think about making it an exercise room…”

Which means a place for her and her yoga friends to meet…

At least she isn’t moving me to the barn?

……….yet………….


Better mind your “P’s” and “Q’s” or you’ll be out there with Charlette and Wilbur…..

And Spike and Gidget, the barn cats…

That’s not a worry. The office is for paperwork and computers. The barn isn’t climate controlled - yet. Probably can’t be. It’s old and doesn’t have insulation.

I don’t typically load in my office but I do keep some supplies in there, like powder and carbon steel tools.

Are they nice to look at?

223 prepped out and waiting on me,,,

Organizing.


This one is pretty decent now, at least I can use space on it. It does double duty between reloading and woodworking.

I'm working on my primary loading bench area now, before FEMA shows up and declares it a disaster area.
I have some shelves to put up and things to find a new home for.
I'm trying to ... decompress.





Work in progress.

Organizing.

Isn't that a constant state of flux for reloaders?

 

[stonebuster]

Dirty brass has been stacking up fast for the past couple months since I last reloaded. It's fishing/boating season now and shooting on windy/rainy days. Retirement is a tough job but somebody's got to do it.

 

[Jim Watson]

Everything is on standby. The D550C I traded for is adjusted for my current .45 load, which I will shoot some of today to be sure there is no hidden flaw. My D550 9mm awaits the bits for my Glock MOS so I can work up (down, really) to a functional and accurate AND MILD load for GSSF which does not require power factor.

Geez! No kidding! My cardiologist and my investment advisor are both pushing me to retire but I keep telling them I’m too tired for that. I need to rest up for a couple of years first.

An old minister friend of our family(old school kind that it was truly a heart calling and not a career) who was quite a funny guy; when asked(at 85) about retirement had a standard answer. “Retire? Which shop? Michelin or Goodyear…” (finally retired at 89, and still served as an assistant pastor till his death at 92)



I’ve got a woodworking project (bookcase) waiting on my bench…

[Skgreen]

Grab some projos off the shelf and I'll be set,,,

 

[dieselchief]

skgreen, nice set up. organized. what cartridge? the 223 in the previous picture?

 

[Skgreen]

Thanks DC.
Yes, it's the same 223 I've been prepping lately. (Everyone's least favorite part of reloading,,, brass prep,,,, EL YUCKO!)

 

[shoebox1.1]

My 27-9 shoots good enough to send to Frank Glenn for action job but he’s loaded up with work till August. So I ordered a Wilson combat spring kit and it comes today! So I’ve got to open it up and change springs WITHOUT any damage or scratches lol. I have plenty of light and good screwdrivers.

 

[doubleh]

My inventory of lead 9mm reloads is getting thin. I should replenish it.
