Today at the Bench.....

Finally getting back to reloading a bit. Spent a couple hours last night over a zoom call with my cousin, who’s starting to reload, on going over the steps of setting up a sizing die and going over the steps of trimming/deburring/chamfering. He’s read the ABC’s of Reloading and I think just got overwhelmed a bit. Since I have to reset all my dies since the addition of a wear plate to my co-ax, I figured it’d be helpful for him to see the process. It worked well too as I had my rifle handy to show the process of adjusting to your rifles chamber rather than just following the directions that come with the dies. All in all, I resized 5 pieces of brass for my .338-06. Haha! I’m getting somewhere!

Sounds like you are getting him going in the right direction.

I had some time to get some stuff done yesterday, but couldn’t figure out anything to do. That was depressing.

I almost wish I had that problem! Ha! Since I’m not shooting much, I’m slowly going through all rifles and cleaning them. Once the bores are cleaned the corresponding sizing die gets re-adjusted.

Long list of reloading to do before moving into our own house in April-May. This move will be easy as it’s just across town rather than across a few states.

When I bought my house it was the same way, across town. Made it very easy.

I’ll find something to do I’m sure. Just need to get creative.
