A couple days ago I deprimed and swaged the 700+ pieces of 5.56 brass I got from an auction on Facebook. It’ll probably go in the wet tumbler tomorrow.

I've mostly been tinkering in the loading room. It seems like sorting and tumbling brass is an ongoing project and thats mostly what I've been doing.
I've been shooting 308 so much lately...practicing wind calls...hopefully it translates to my 300PRC when match season rolls around...but shooting 308 so much lately I had to set up the progressive press to reload it. Also, did 700+ rounds of 6.5cm for a friend.
Got my 45 70 brass sized, necks chamfered and primed. Next step is some IMR4198 topped with a GT 390 gr. bullet and I can finally try out my 1884 Trapdoor.
