What did you do at your reloading bench today?

[gungate]

Damn you people and your neat and tidy homes. I WILL get into my garage and get it straightened out so that I can do this.

Only the gun-room is tidy. This is that closet I created out of hidden space behind a knee wall. This space barely has enough room to turn around.

I added another shelf. It is impossible to have too much space. I am tempted to will put another shelf under this one. This one let me clear everything off the top of my bench.

One can never have too many shelves in the loading area!!

You are the first person I have found that has bought one. Did you put up a shooting report somewhere?

I did not put up a report, but I can say that the recoil from a Smith&Wesson Shield Plus Is pleasant to say the least. My wife absolutely loves it and she’s trying to claim it for her carry gun.

I spent an hour and a half looking for my 10mm resizing die before giving up and ordering another one.
I have cleaned ~4000 pieces of 5.56 brass. I ordered a swaging kit for my Lee APP because I'm not about to manually remove that many crimps/

Holy shit. I just realized the irony of it being a 10mm die.

never complain about the wife "claiming " your gun , just gives you a chance to buy another one .

Not complaining, but that was already in my thought process.

How is the accuracy?

At 10 yards my wife was putting 16 rounds (1 mag) in a circle about the size of a baseball from a standing position. I’ll get a picture of her target mid week when we hit the range again.

Try some of your reloads too!

That’s the plan for mid week. I had to burn off some factory ammo for the cases, I didn’t see where anybody had new cases for sale yet.

Since the caliber hasn't really caught fire, the ammo manufacturers aren't going to bust a line for a short run which may not take off. I would like to see a couple more manufacturers get into the game including Sig.

I hope so too.

I misspoke when I said I didn’t have one of my wife’s targets from the other day, she had saved one. Not too shabby for my wife from 10 yards standing. She did have one flier just at the top of the target but I’ll give her a mulligan for that one.

No, not bad at all.

Don't make her mad!

I’ve been married to her for 36 years, you think I’d know better than to do that but I can’t help myself.

Funny how that works....

Mulligan, hell!!!!! That's an eight inch target, so even with the flyer, that's a 4" group!! That's a lot of dead bad guy!!!

I appreciate the fact that none of the shots were low and to one side.

Loaded up 300 rounds of various 9mm recipes. Hopefully that will be enough to sight in my new red dot. The native footprint required use of supplied RMR adaptor plates. The supplied screw heads were slightly too large, had to chuck them in a Dremel and reduce their diameter.
