Reloading Porn Pic's

Very nice. You should do a how to on that explaining what you used and how. I am sure I would not be the only one interested.

My day or two is coming in the reloading room. The number of empties is growing.

@TheDude I have everything, but a wire mesh to soft the powder off. Almost at that stage :slight_smile:

Wax slugs was the flavour of the day today. Have never made them, so here’s the first batch.

Don’t mind the overflow, all of that got wiped off. Stay tuned for a separate writeup.

will have to post up how they go. ive not tried wax. Ive been converting cheap 7 1/2 shot trap loads to 1 oz slugs and roll crimping. pretty decent accuracy

That’s exactly what I do, @TheDude. Although, lately I’ve been using paraffin instead of roll crimp. Works alright, although doesn’t look badass enough.

Art!

What’s going on in the bottom pic? :slight_smile: Sorting a bucket of ‘I’ll get to it later’ stuff?

That was me sorting brass after the first Plinkfest. :grinning:

Not very porn like but got some time today to play in the shed. Did about 250 x 22-250, 200 x 6.5x55 and resized 150 x 30-06.

Got enough ammo stockpiled to get me through to January/February when I build my new reloading setup.

Replied here:

Tried powder coating for the first time… Unless I am shooting black powder, this is what I am going to use from now on. Seems to be a much more efficient approach.


yes, very good ventilation and mask


I think I need to tweak a few things in my process and possibly powder, but happy overall


my press is getting excited, red rocket! ROFL


some see lipstick, but I see something else hehehehe

Anyway, that’s 45-70 done and dusted for a while. I also want to do Carcano and 8x56R, but I need to make some ingots first, :confused:

Next, making 45-70 from hell :smiley:

You have been a busy lad.
Looking good.

Yeah, but I am not happy with the consistency of how they look. Or rather, I know I can improve. That’s for the dedicated thread. Will do some more over the weekend maybe, weather permitting and see what happens. Need to flux lots of wheel weights first.

I’ve been doing some shopping.
Shotgun lee loader from 1975, looks unused.

And a new Dillon XL650 press

Now I’ve got to do some more casting and powder coating on the weekend to keep this thing fed.
