Lurve My Loads ♥

and space to reload, but I don't.

I have issues with space, too. I don't have a dedicated reloading area.
Every single time, I have to drag in my WorkMate Bench inside and set it up...bolt my press and measure to it, get out my scale, dies, components, etc....
Then when I'm done, I have to tear it all down and stow everything out of sight.
Set up and tear down is a big part of my reloading time, unfortunately.

I hear that! I use 4.0 gr of bullseye for my NRA centerfire match loads and a 230 gr SWC or LRN that I cast. Good shootin there Jetgirl. Rep for the lady reloader in the house.
Someone rep this woman for me. It said I have to spread the wealth.

Thanks! And thanks for the ThoughtRep.
(Don't hassle me...it is TOO a word! )

Left; 50 Match. Middle; 50 Match WadCutter. Right; 50 of my Reloads.
Yeah, buddy...

So , if I understand you correctly the two on the left are "store bought" rnds , and the last you loaded yourself ?

How is it that your loads get better grouping / accuracy than factory loads ?

Correct.

That's part of the beauty of rolling your own.

I repped her for you, despite the fact that she hasn't bolted her reloading gear to the kitchen counter.

You can try different loads and find out what your gun likes the best. Its part of the fun.

Thanks! We should get the fams together to plink sometime!

Great job reloading and shooting! I hope I fair half as well as you with my loads. Loaded up 2 loads tonight with the powder you just sold Brent.

Definitely let us know what will work for you. We make it a point to try to get out a couple of times a month. Sounds like fun!!!

Anytime you have to make due with temporary reloading, Lag bolt your press to a piece of 2 X 6 and clamp it to your kitchen table, desk or kitchen countertop. Even when I had a designated reloading room and a great bench, I had several of my lesser used pieces of equipment lag bolted to 2 X 6 to keep from making the front edge of the bench too cluttered. Good Luck

I'm thinkin the pink primers made the differance. J/K, 4.4 gr clays under a 230 gr fmj is a sweet combo +1. It has light recoil and less muzzle flip = great groups. Good example of how reloads are better than factory.

Let's do it the other way around... I work every weekend, but my boss is super awesome with the flexibility thing. So you tell me what works for your peeps and I'll work around it. Fling a message into my PM inbox and we'll go from there!
