So... since my reloading shop is out in the workshop area of the barn, I checked the weather... Yesterday would be tolerable... and it actually turned out to be quite pleasant. After my last big match, I'd filled both tumblers full of brass, 45 Colt, C45S, .30-30, & 45ACP... and had already tumbled them for a few hours, nice and clean! But, I couldn't find my separater! So, more hand work! I have plenty of brass, At least the equivalent of a 3 gallon bucket of each... Plus what was freshly tumbled in the Dillon 2000 tumbler and the Lyman 1200! Powder & primers are not in short supply right now in my storage cabinet... But they will be if I continue to spill a whole powder measure off the Dillon!
Forgot to tighten it down as I started to weigh my charges... But... after about 3-½ hours I had 3 full cans of ammo! Loaded 10 primer tubes... 1,000 rounds!
As I was looking for ammo... I ran across a bag of brass that hadn't been cleaned after my BP match back in late September... So after a session with the sonic cleaner and trip in the oven at 170ºF for an hour... Which will go in the tumbler... after I get back from FL!
