    Decided to put together a few AA Winchester rounds with some copper plated #6 shot.

    Locked the door and handed my wife the key. You see I have to take some weird drug today for a procedure and its going to make me loopy. They claim I will not remember the day. Last thing I want is to stroll in the room and load up a few rounds not having a clue. See you guys tomorrow. God willing.

    Loaded up test load #2 for the new 6.5 Creedmoor. First load shot six into a nice 1/2" group @ a hundred yards.

    With primers that looked like they had been hit with a 2 pound hammer. No heavy bolt lift, but the 22-250 donor brass certainly was fully formed.

    And it was supposed to be a starting load.

    Today, 2 1/2 weeks after major neck surgery I sized some 405 gn, 45-70 bullets that I had cast a few days before surgery. Feels good to finally get to do a little "light" something. About 3 more weeks and hopefully will be good to get out and do some shooting.

    Time to size the bullets I cast yesterday.
    I ordered heater cartridge and temperature controller just before Christmas and received them late January.
    Cheap shipping from China to Finland takes a while.

    Finally got around making the heated base plate for my LAMII.
    But how hot should it be? Just enought to soften the lubricant or some specific temperature?

    Started washing and sorting 6 - 1gallon bags of 22rf cases to make 22 cal jackets. If my figures are right, a little over 34,000 cases.
    It may take a little longer then I had planned.

    Washed two full buckets of RB in citric acid. The cement mixer works great and now looking forward to much sorting.

    Finished resizing batch of 500 fired 5.7x28 brass. My Lee shell holder for 25 ACP turned out to be very sloppy for this cartridge, so ordered RCBS one, which fits perfect.
    Hornady dies, imperial sizing die wax worked great. In this batch - 4 cases with neck separation and one with fused primer (this one will be used for trim setup).
