So.. what are you reloading at the moment??

[khayden65]

1,000 38 SPL, Xtreme 125 gr RNFP, using 3.9 gr of 700-X, 1.460" OAL. Had some extra nickel brass left and some 125 gr Hornady XTP so I finished the run with a small number (60 pieces) of 38 SPL +P using 6.7 gr of Power Pistol with 1.440" OAL. Running on a Dillon XL650.

A week earlier I ran 500) 357 MAGNUM, 158 gr FMJ RN (RMR), over 16.3 gr of W296. Anyone know a good economical source for 357 FMJ's? RMR no longer offers these(wish I would have purchased more @ $.10 each), and I like to run my magnums (357 & 44) with a FMJ as opposed to the copper plated one from RMR & Xtreme.

I loaded 700 rounds of 158 gr .38's a couple weekends ago. They basically filled a .30 cal ammo can.

The next weekend I finished loading about 750 rounds of plinking .308 ammo and now I'm working on stocking up on some 245 gr .300 blk. After that, I'll do some 125 gr .300 blk and then get started on a hood bit of 9mm

I recently purchased a S&W M&P10 and looking to reload the 308, what is your source for and type of projectiles? What press are you running on?

Just started a big batch of .380, probably close to 1500 rounds.

I normally cast my own, but I recently bought 1500 cast swc's from a fellow INGO'er. They were IN Bullet Compnay bullets. Seemed like good quality. I load most of my ammo on an RCBS turret press. Slower than a progressive but sometimes that more fun!

I have been loading up some 7.62x54R using Winchester brass, 150 grain pulled bullets and some H335 powder. I never thought I would reload 7.62x54R due to surplus ammunition being so cheap and available in the past. Now I am wanting to save my two crates of surplus ammo and it will be nice not to deal with the corrosive cleaning process.

Looking forward to trying them out this Spring.

Powder Valley had Zero 38 caliber 125gr and 158 gr fmj's. for a good price last time bought some.

I signed my family up for the Linden Conservation Club last week. Yesterday I made it out to test my 44 mag plinking loads. I settled for 7 gr of TiteGroup with 240 gr Berry's FPs. Soft enough I think my wife will enjoy shooting it. I made up 100 rounds tonight.

I just don't get it! I have just started down this reloading path, and I have a YUUUUUGE problem already. My log tells me that as of today, I have loaded 467 rounds of 9mm cartridges. But the problem is, they keep magically disappearing! Seriously! Something is definitely wrong here and I am not exactly sure what it is.

One hint seems to be that they are turning into holes in paper. Not sure if that is pertinent or not, but it seems to be a pattern that I must investigate to figure out what is going on here!

I guess I will have to keep loading more to see if I can figure out what is happening!

I have the same issue!

Loaded some 7.0g of Vihtavuori N340 into some 44 mag cases with a cast 300g FT GC. Nice little groups at 25 yards, but it seemed dirty. The cases looked like heavy soot.

I thought the N340 was known for clean? I may need to drive it a little harder and get a little more than 7g.
How is yours? Is this too low?

NYE spent loading ladders of 357 and 41 magnums, Xtreme bullets and AA9.

May run the remainder of 45ACP through the Dillon if I can stay up.

Piddling with some 38's this morning.
An older friend sent his 650 home with my brother yesterday, so we'll work on setting it up today.
Getting awful blue in the reloading room

 

[1775usmarine]

Loaded some more of my +p 38 recipe. 4.2gr Titegroup at 1.425in 158gr xtreme and just yesterday tried some older hornady 158gr SJHP same OAl that functioned great from my LCR, and GP100. Hoping to finish what little 38spl brass I have and start working on a load for 357.

.38 wadcutters. 150 of 200 I want to get done today.

 

[Ash]

7.62 x 38 Nagant. I have some Fiocchi brass that I've cut down to do away with the case-to-forcing cone gas seal used in the Nagant revolver. There's not a whole lot of information out there, including on the internet, about this round. Though I did find a place to start.
At least I already load for .30 Carbine, so I can utilize the sizing, and seating dies for this Nagant brass. Lee #19 shell-holder fits the rim pretty good too.

 

[bgcatty]

8mm Mauser for my 24/47. 7.62x54 Russian for my Mosin Nagant. .303 British for my Enfield. 7.5x54 for my MAS. Great fun loading for these guns and experimenting with different loads.

 

[2in1evtime]

working on some test rounds in 25 06 some i have tested recently have been impressive so fine tuning now

 

[JStang314]

Just got done with a quick 100 rounds of .223 on the Rockchucker. Need to finish my big runs of .223 and .40 S&W but I usually get bored after a hundred or two. .40 is better because it's on the Turret press and a lot less case prep but I still can't do it very long.

 

[BiscuitsandGravy]

Ran my first batch of 2017 last night... Only 50 of 40g Noslers over 26 to 27.5gr of H355. Good to get back on the press...

Its -3 deg... Good reloading weather or work on some model trains w my Son...
