Loaded 300 rounds 9mm after work today, will unload 300 rounds of 9mm on Sunday, weather permitting.

Should hopefully be done in the next few weeks.

I have a lot of workbench space out in my garage so I set up all of my case preparation to be done outside. And all of my loading activities inside. With it getting colder now I need to rush to prep 1,000 more 9mm cases before it gets too cold to work outside for any length of time. That should give me enough cases to load inside during the coldest part of the year so I can continue with my EDC and holster practice. I try to load as much as I can during the winter and spring and then case prep during the summer and fall months. I have a whole lot of 9mm, 38SPL and 357Mag to load plus some 380ACP and various rifle cartridges.

Yesterday I prepped a bunch of 9mm cases and loaded 100 rounds of 9mm. Also did some general maintenance on my dies and presses. And general housekeeping around my garage. I recently bought a little air compressor and while it is totally inadequate for running tools it works well for blowing out dies and inflating tires.

Earlier this week I walked into one of the LGS here and they had 3lbs of CFE Pistol and 1lb of Titegroup. They let me buy them all so I think I now have enough powder along with what I already had to last me for quite a while.

My Ruger Super Redhawk sold on consignment so I am looking for my next EDC pistol since my Glock 17 and Sig P228 have turned out to be way too big and heavy for EDC.

reloaded some 357 with the DEWC with titegroup
by the book, load seems rather low.  but I'm going by the book.  we'll see how it shoots


up next will be the 44 DEWC.  I haven't found any load data for that particular projectile, so we'll have to start low and work it up from there

Taking alot of people shooting lately, they want to get into shooting. I had the frames a long time. Besides, I'm a bad shot. Can't hit the side of a barn!

I swaged about 200 cast and powder coated boolits to load this morning for 38 Special.

I got all the components together to reload 3-400 rounds of 38 Special today. As I was setting up the first 200 cases I noticed numerous 357 cases were mixed in with my 38 cases. Looks like when I was prepping 357 cases sometime during the summer I dumped them in with my 38 Special cases by accident. So I got to spend the next half hour or so sorting out brass. I decided to only load 200 rounds today due to this.

I went through all my ammo boxes and realized I don’t have enough for my 38 Special and 357 magnum so I’ll go down to the store later today and get some. I want to expand the amount of 38 Special and 357 ammo I keep in inventory.

I organized the ammo boxes I do have and labeled them and did the data input into my app.
