    Got some .500 S&W 350gr XTP bullets and 50 pieces of once fired brass.

    Researching how to reload them for my GFs son, he has the tooling.

    Ordered 200 Large rifle primers for them and some H110.

    Gonna be extra careful working these babies up, don't want to damage this revolver and I will likely insist taking the first shot and looking for signs of pressure.

    These rounds are monsters.

    Just deprimed a few hundred .380 and .40 S&W cases. Next they’ll go in the ultra sonic.

    It is the max load from the speer manual # 15. Gonna shoot them in a forged 1911. I haven't used them yet but its supposed to produce 1180fps.
    I double checked prior to posting this
    Hopefully its not a typo..lol

    That's interesting. Accurate lists a Max load of 7.4 @ 1090fps. The only reason I find that interesting is because they list a much hotter charge for the 124 grain plates that I run compared to the Lee guide.

    Preparing 222 cases for a run when I get some quite time. The old triple deuce still finds use for me for coyotes.

    322 powder still have enough and I have primers. Just need time when I am not distracted or nothing else is on the calendar with the family. So most likely next year
