I ordered a few bits & pieces to make some things i’ve got a bit more funnerer. And I missed out on a little 22 i was chasing…bummer.

So I loaded a tone of ammo, all sorts.
…only to have an unfortunate failure.
Emailed Dillon with warranty claim, now we wait…
Loaded all 357/38 bullets I had (I had a few teeheehee) and almost all 9mm. Unfortunaly the blue beast gave way circa 400 projies from the finish line.
Cranked out singel stage and loaded all Cadet brass I had.
In the meantime… @JizzFlinger, you requested photos, I give you photos.

3 hour check-in
6 hour rest time
7th hour - hello clogged arteries.
Next on the agenda I will be all loading I have been avoiding, but with one press out of commission, it’s single stage ‘boutique calibre’ loading time.

Oh yes and the fucking simplex cadet die decapping pin broke, like wtf - checked the box, no spares. Why do they not come with spares!! All others comes with spares. Emailed Simplex. Transitioned to universal decapping die and then FL… Thankfully Cadet doesn’t have the expander mandrel.

Mmmm, no, I don’t think so. I own up to my deeds. But in these 2 cases (and wait for snapped rifle bolt pic soon 
) I don’t think I am to blame. I am not rough with my equipment at all. As for Cadet pin, you’d expect part of the pin to be retained… Not in this case, entire pin was gone. I suspect the tension screw/nut/bolty thing holding the pin in place was loose and the whole thing went down the spent primer collection chute.

I might have a spare, if you want??
Looks delicious
They’re not bad
Good job Pete, I’ve always hung shit on the .410, seems it should be hanging shit on me instead!
Maybe you can hang shit on each other, in a German porn kind of way.

Bear in mind,this is with 2.5" shells with 12gm of shot going 1100fps too. Not exactly a powerful load even for a 410…
