Trap league is starting up --At 71 - to try to stay in the game - I am switching from my standard 12 gauge 1 1/8 ounce, 7 1/2 shot loads to 7/8 ounce 8 1/2 shot. --7/8 ounce of 8 1/2 has 435 BBs versus my old 1 1/8 - 7 1/2s with 394 BBs--25% less recoil-- less cost -- has worked great at the 16 yard line.
Setting up one machine for .45ACP and the other for .30 Carbine.
45-70 for Sharps with hand cast 535g Postell bullet with Swiss 1.5. The pan lube is cooling off and should be ready tomorrow for assembly.
Going full bore down the 8.6blk rabbit hole.
I am working up both sub and super sonic loads for my 12" ar and my 16" Rem 700.
I have gotten the modification of Hornady 6.5 creedmoor brass to 8.6blk down now so am working on starting loads with various powders, 1680, cfeblk, h110, tac, the possibilities are going to be fun to work out.
Already I have found that 32.0 gr of 1680 with a 225gr CX bullet is too much (blown primers and stuck bolt), but 28 gr gives me 1960fps and sub moa groups.
It's an ongoing process, but it is fun, especially because I'm winging it without a whole lot of info on the internet.

Preparing 300 new factory, brass cases of 300 BLK/OUT caliber then checking them in a case gauge ready to prime. Waiting on my order of assorted 30cal. bullets to arrive very soon. Getting ready for the next rainy day to make some of my favorite reloaded ammunition.
