    Reloading!

    I recently really cleaned up my reloading bench to get back down to business. I had slacked off the alst several years because I could not see clearly enough.

    So, I got the whole place ready and bucked down the last week.

    Decapping...

    A bit of the .38/.357 I was concentrating upon.... I am part way through the 1800 .38 Spl I need to do. I am also taking photos for an overhead/slide show I am putting together, as I am planning on teaching a couple of reloading classes at a local Gun Store.

    OK, Sportsfans! Can anybody tell me why I took this photo of this very critical problem? Look closely!

    The RCBS, full-ring presses are really lifetime quality. The Rock Chucker is my preferred press. The cam-action mechanical leverage and quality are evident. The equivalent Lee is good too. I do not like the "C" presses.

    I have spent tonight sorting and polishing! Couldnt sleep, so I figured I'd do something productive. I'll have some brass for you the next time I see you. It looks like I recovered over 40 pieces of Star line 10mm for you while I was scavenging up the .45 and such. The range trip was a net loss in .45 for me though. I shot 150, recovered 93.. some not mine and not in good shape.
