Ok. All my vacant .44 Special brass is reloaded. I think. Assuming I don't find any more. Now to do .45 Colt, .45 Schofield, and .44 Mag.


I had a pause in play when my wife unloaded the top of my loading bench to set her sewing machine up on it. Now she has her own table for the sewing machine, and I got my loading bench back.


I really need to find a single action revolver in .44 Special. It seems a waste to be shooting my .44 Specials out of my Redhawk.
 
I wouldn't say it's waste to shoot spec's in the RH. I might say it's a waste to pack a RH only to shoot spec's..but yeah, you need a single-action option.

LOL--very well put.
 
Just finished loading 200 more rounds of .45 Colt for my Ruger Vaquero. New Winchester brass, Winchester Large Pistol primers, Bear Creek 255 gr. LRNFP bullet over 5.8 gr. of Trail Boss.
 
Just opened my last jar of Trail Boss, and I only have 100 Bear Creek .45 - 255 grain bullets left. Time for a reloading supply run. Looks like I might be out of jacketed bullets for my .44 Mags, too.

This gun has been for sale for a while...it is NIB.

Send this guy a message and tell him that you will give him $399 delivered...he will accept and you will be set.

The flattops are SPECIAL...not just 44 special.

P.S. Please do this so that I will not have to...I have a sack full of these things already...but this is a steal on a great gun.
 
Totally out of 255 grain bullets until I can get by Bullets-R-Us later in the week. Have to find something else to load.
 
Last weekend's loading session - 500 rounds .45 Colt.

A plastic toolbox full of 100 round bags of .45 Colt and .45 S&W.

I need another storage box for my .45 before I load more.
 
I have brass for .45 Colt, .45 Schofield, and .45 ACP, but no bullets on hand for any of them. I have bullets for .44 Special, and .44 Mag, but no empty brass for either. I have bullets for .243 Winchester, but no empty brass.

And I have to make a trip to Texas in a couple of weeks, so I'm gonna have to save my money.

Though if that Ruger Single Six in .32 H&R Mag is still at the gun shop on Monday, I may throw it on layaway.
 
Just wanted to say, thanks for pointing me in that direction. It is a nice gun. :D

One of the benefits of this cold snowy winter and after two long years of scrounging up powder for the 308 WIN. Got 600 more bullets (500 AMAX and 100 GameKing) coming Monday in time for some more snow.

 
Only got 150 rounds of 45 ACP and 50 rounds of .243 done this week. Started running out of components.

Due to a question from my wife, I weighed the ammo I have yesterday. I currently load .44 Special, .44 Mag, .45 ACP, .45 S&W, .45 Colt, .243 Win, and .30-06. I buy 12 gauge, .22 Mag, and .22 LR.

After subtracting the weight of the storage boxes, I currently have just under 325 pounds of ammo on hand.
