I'm 5'7 and currently have a 42" high bench, rough fit with a 4" mount would seem pretty good standing and I have 8'+ ceilings. Do not send me to a heaven where there are no dogs. Step Up or Stand Aside: Support the Troops ! Expectations are premeditated disappointments. | |||

Finished loading all my prepped blackout brass. It wasn't as much as I thought, so I'm halfway through sizing half a 5-gallon bucket more. Thank God I have the jumbo-sized Lyman tumbler. It was already clean, but I need to get lube off. However, I apparently had cleaned it in stainless, which means I need to chamfer the mouth of every case. Especially since I'm loading cast bullets. Ugh. I did find a full 50 Cal can of 223 though while looking for a can to put the blackout in, so that's good. My 9mm stash is about 1/4 of a 30 Cal can. That should take me perhaps an hour or two to fill, no big deal. I'll start on that after I finish sizing the remaining blackout - which I'll return to right after my coffee break. Oh, also, it appears my gempro took a shit. I'm going to start a separate thread to discuss that though. | |||

I organized my powder and primers today. I vacuum bagged the primers 1000 per bag. Should Keep for a while. Loaded some 300 BO subs for function testing. | |||

Why don't you keep them in their little boxes and trays? Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. "If dogs don't go to Heaven, I want to go where they go" Will Rogers The definition of the words we used, carry a meaning of their own... | |||

Right? That's all I do. Put them on the shelf, in the cardboard boxes they came in when I bought them by the case. I have some primers that I bought from an estate sale that are easily 20 years old. Winchester, back when they used tan boxes. I've loaded over 10k of them, they all went bang without a single complaint. | |||

Did you season the primers before you vacuum sealed them? *inside joke* -------------------------------------- "There are things we know. There are things we dont know. Then there are the things we dont know that we dont know." | |||

I left the primers in the 1000 round boxes and trays. | |||

That should be fine. The "seasoned" quip was directed as a joke to another frequent poster here. I will let him explain. Nothing directed poorly at yourself. -------------------------------------- "There are things we know. There are things we dont know. Then there are the things we dont know that we dont know." | |||

Loaded up 100 rounds of 300blkout on the single stage which reminds me I need to get a caliber conversion for the 550! David W. Rather fail with honor than succeed by fraud. -Sophocles | |||

So you basically vacuum bagged each brick of primers to protect them from moisture? What an interesting idea. Life moves pretty fast.

Pushed my freshly tumbled 18lbs of 40cal brass through my G-RX sizing die tonight and added it to my stash. I'm up to 52lbs of deprimed, sized and cleaned 40cal brass. Only 25lbs left to get through and then it's onto the 9mm brass. | |||

Plowing straight ahead come what may |
Cleaned this summer's .45 Colt brass...getting everything ready to start loading until I run out of bullets or brass, whichever comes first ... 12 gauge is next. ******************************************************** "we've gotta roll with the punches, learn to play all of our hunches Making the best of what ever comes our way Forget that blind ambition and learn to trust your intuition Plowing straight ahead come what may And theres a cowboy in the jungle" Jimmy Buffet | |||
