Loaded 500 rounds of 40 S&W Saturday. Cleaned 2000 pieces of 38 special nickle brass Sunday. Getting ready for my upcoming purchase of a 6" Colt Python.

Wow! I agree with the steps on rifle cartridges. It takes me several months to get to a point to load mine. I listen too, to many bench rest shooters.

Switched my XL650 to .223 and Resized and pushed out the primmer on the last of the .223 brass. Used my Frankford Arsenal case trimmer to trim the OAL and ream the primer pockets. Didn't count the sticks of brass. It was somewhere around 500. About half a small ammo can.

Switched my XL650 to .45 ACP. The last time I loaded .45 ACP (February 2017), my powder measure was set to throw 4.45 Gr. of VVN310. I checked without adjusting and a 10 round sample averaged 4.46 Gr. I am a happy camper. I plan to reload a sample and chronograph and function check. I am switching from Large Pistol primer to Small Rifle primers and from lead 200 gr. SWC to coated 200 gr. SWC I am sure that, those that pick up the brass that I missed, will get irritated at the small primer pockets:-) For me it's just a way to use the primers that I have.

It's odd that no one seems to be posting in this thread.

I loaded around 500 rounds of 223 last week. The wife and I went shooting on our anniversary. I took my 223 too test 20 rounds. I got in trouble because I did pack her rifle and she had to shoot mine. I give my 45 ACP small pistol primer brass away. I just like keeping things simple when sorting out 45 ACP brass.

The rain has kept me away from some outside chores. I decided to sit down and roll 500, 40 S &W. Next on the list is rolling 223.

I bought a Lyman prep center. My neighbor gave me 2000 rounds of 223 brass from a police range. I just could not see myself reworking all of the brass by hand. A club member gave me 1,200 rounds of 40 S & W nickle brass as well. I had my work cut for a few days.

Loaded and tested my first 223 rounds. Everything worked extremely well. I wish I had a problem too go and chase. I was kinda disappointed that things went so well. Also, cleaned 3000 rounds of 40 S&W , 2000 rounds of 9 mm and 750 of 45 ACP.

Club president gave me 4000 rounds of 40 S & W nickle and another club member gave me 1500 rounds of brass. I cleaned, deprimmed and loaded 500 rounds.

Purchased a Dillon 550C. I loaded 500 rounds of 40 S & W, cleaned and deprimmed 1500 rds of 40 S & W brass, cleaned and deprimmed 3000 rounds of 9mm, loaded 10 rounds of 9 mm to test. I did this over a over a three period. After I test the 9 mm, I will load 500 rounds for match shooting. Next on the purchase list is a 223 die, 45 ACP die and 308 die. I have enough brass to keep me busy over the hot summer. Oh! build another AR15:

I helped a friend train his dog and in return he made me a small reloading table. I have my mind set on the Dillon 550B.
