    I had a little time this morning and finished sizing, necking up, and trimming some 35 whelen brass I got from Wes a while back. I’m getting it ready to fireform into 375 whelen AI. Now that the holidays are over, I’m hoping to have a little more time to get some reloading projects done.

    Today at the Bench.....

    I busted open some range brass I got from Wes a few months ago. I sized trimmed tumbled and primed some FC 257 Roberts brass for my Ruger No1, some WW 257 Roberts brass for my 98 Mauser, and some 30-40 krag brass.

    Right now I’m working on a bag of PPU 6mm Rem brass. I’m necking it up to 7mm and then back down to .257, forming a false shoulder so I can fireform them into 257 Roberts Ackley Improved.

    Put together a few loads for my .35 Remington Contender pistol. I hope I get to test it tomorrow.

    The Contender is one I haven't had out in a while, what length barrel do you have for the 35?

    I'd love to hear how it shoots for you if you get a chance.

    It shot pretty well. My two best loads were the 160gr FTX and 158gr Sierra flat points. I also had a load with 190gr cast bullets and Trail Boss. It shot fairly well and the recoil was nothing.

    I am not surprised by the Sierra shooting well, is this gun scoped?
