What did you reload lately?

[clelaj]

Here is photo of my reload bench. Squeezed together a little for the photo. Loaded 357 / 358429 / 2400 and 38 / 158 lswc / Unique. Range time at MCFG next week.

I got my S&W 586 back out recently (after a long retirement) and have been loading mostly 158 Missouri swc and stiff loads of 2400 and having a blast.

I Googled your 358429, and it looks good bullet, an Elmer Keith design, 173gr. with a big flat nose. Do you cast them yourself?

I reloaded for the first time ever today in Andrew's class!

45 ACP.

 

[mac45]

Put together some .30-06 for the Garand.
So far at least it seems to like 168gr Sierra's and IMR4895.

 

[Slapstick]

Let's see in the past few days some .380, 9mm, .233 & 308.

 

[Kingpin]

.223 's last night 9mm today

 

[tv1217]

Just my fat gut, unfortunately. Haven't purchased any components lately.

 

[straight-shooter]

Loaded some black powder, wads and round ball six shots at a time. I'm gonna go cast up a few hundred more round ball today.

P dog season nears

I loaded .223 last night and will do more today as well as getting started on several hundred more .17 Fireball. I've only got until mid June to get ready.

Ion,
I do not cast myself so am buying. Note the cylinder on the SW 586 might be too short to load the 358429 in 357 case in normal crimp groove. You may have to crimp a 357 case in front of the forward driving band or use a 38 spl case. Be careful with powder charge.

I haven't loaded anything in weeks. My gear is all packed in preparation for my upcoming move to Indiana. Hopefully my current ammo stash holds out until I have a new bench built!

45 ACP.

And so begins your journey to ammunition independence!

The last week or so I've been up in Michigan, working on habitat improvement projects. This week I will be replenishing the 9mm ammo supply that my son put a major dent in while I was gone. Also, his birthday is coming up and that means a shooting party, so I've got to put together a few hundred rounds of various ammo for that, too. For some reason, these kids just love the lever-action stuff, so 44/40 is on the list. They also want to shoot a few groups with the '06, but I've already got lots of that on-hand.

Last week I ran a few different test loads for 9mm, now I've got a couple thousand rounds to load.

.38 Special-Cast.

I put together some .38 Special
1.160gr. RN-I cast from RCBS 2 cavity mold+sized to .358"-Lubed with "Jakes Red"
2.158gr. RNFP-I cast from Lee 6 cavity mold+sized to .358"-Lubed with "Jakes Red"

Both styles of bullets were loaded over 3.6gr. of TiteGroup, with Rem 1 1/2 SP primers.
Hodgdon's Data sheet shows them at about 900fps.

These were loaded to be fired in my S&W Model 10's--I load similar load in .357 cases for use in my .357Mag. revolvers-S&W J,K,L,and N's...Bill.

 

[sgreen3]

Put together a few different loads for the Savage FP SR in 308. Gonna try and get it out this week an see what happens

 

[blamecharles]

.40 S&W have loaded over 500 rounds in the past few weeks and shot all but 1 group of 50 and a test set of 10 rounds. Waiting on more components right now.

 

[rockhopper46038]

Another 700 rounds of 9mm; going to change over and do 1000 .45ACP next.

 

[Redskinsfan]

I loaded twenty rounds of 35 Remington for my Marlin 336CS. I used 200 grain round nose copper jacketed bullets and IMR3031. I already shot them all, it was fun. The rifle, which is new to me but older than I am, performed flawlessly after my thorough cleaning (the first time out it did not perform flawlessly).

I am going to load more today I think and shoot them tomorrow.
