Cleaned up more - still trying to pick up after a 20 year hiatus.
Decapped 150 each 7-08 cases for my Tikka (light rifle) and Rem 700 (heavy rifle) metallic silhouette rifles. Tumbled 150 of the Tikka brass for 4 hours in walnut, the necks and interiors look cruddy and make me contemplate getting a pin tumbler for stuff like this. Have the pile to do for the 700.
Found I still have 1.5K each of Sierra 130 and 150gr HPBT match 7mm to load with. The 150 are for rams at 600M.
Found 200 new R-P 7-08 cases in boxes. Need to size and trim these.
Found my "missing" Springfield 03A3 rifle in the back of the safe - no idea of the pedigree but it it has a bunch of NM parts on it and a ordinance 3-51 (not air-gauged barrel) on it. WIP
Noticed I had a load tab in my book for a 6.5x55 Swede - sure enough, have a perfect Carl Gustafs to go with my 2- 7.5x55 Swede K28's.
Found my 22-250 dies in an old box, so I can do 220 Swift, 22-250, and 5.56 - wondered what I'd do with all the 50gr bullets I have - now I know.
Been away from the sport too long.
