What are you loading for 45-70? I load 11 grains of Trail Boss under a 405 grain lead bullet and shoot the gong at 200 yards. A lot of fun.

That's why I like the auto parts cleaner, I can direct the stream where I want it, works great. I like the fact that I can put a revolver in half cock and direct the stream down into the lock works....

My brother sent me about 1500 9 mm cases and about 500 223 cases so I am sizing, trimming and crimp removing the 223 cases. Luckily he wet cleans his cases also so I don't have to clean the 9 mm.

I have been going into Sportsman"s here in Puyallup but they limit to 200 a day. I am still having trouble buying at $95 to $100 but I may eventually have to. Stay safe.

Glad to hear that your room is almost there. It feels good to have the reloading room up and going again. I may not do anything constructive in the reloading room each day but I am always in there...

I have sent the last couple of days loading 9 mm. A fellow reloader in the area bought a Colt Trooper but didn't have any components so I gave him some brass and bullets to get started.

The 5.56 specifications for size and pressure are slightly longer and higher. You can resize 5.56 brass in a 223 die and use it in marked 223 barrels. Factory 5.56 should not be shot in 223 barrels,...
