Yummee!

Last several days been tumbling brass - long overdue. This is main lot tho still have more 38's on the go - and a load of .454's to go thru as well as other 44's just discovered. Quite a lot (undertstatement!) of already clean stuff set aside too - so - heck have I got some loading to do!!

Bottom left (sort of!) - 45acp - approx 2,000+ by weight. Bottom right - approx 300 .44mag. Then top left (ignore the few .223's at top) - 9mm's - approx 5,000 - tho whether I shall use them is another matter entirely! Finally, sorta top right - mostly 38's with some .357's mixed in - approx 1,000.

Winter has a long ways to go yet - so, need now to cast some bullets.

Don't ya just love buckets full of brass? My shotgun shell hulls sure take up lots of space though.

Shotgun hulls - sheesh, tell me about it!

Until recently I had a huge box under one of my work tables and got tired of all the space it was taking. Haven't loaded shotshells for ages so - threw the whole darned lot (many 100's) up on a sorta mezanine deal, out the way. Plus too, bags of wads - so much bulk. Got enough consumables to load 2,000++ - but get so little time for shotgunning these days.

In case you feel a need to get rid of some of that .45 brass keep me in mind :bier:

Nice looking stash of brass there Chris.

Like my little nephew told me one time....
"Hey...you're rich in brass."

I Told him...."Yeah...ONLY in brass." :rofl:

Yeah right QK - if I could convert my brass into bucks - at the level I'd like I'd be off on vacation!!

Bruce - all will be utilized!!! I did think tho when and if you saw that - it might (partially) redeem me in your eyes - ya know - right cal even if in ''wrong'' gun LOL! :tongue:

Looks like I need to start loading .45 ACP next,as I own that new SA Champion.

If your gonna start casting bullets to fill that brass up...

I hope that you have some 4 and 6 cavity molds...otherwise it'll take you years....

HG - 38's not a prob - 6 cavity for those, plus i have been buying some bulk bullets too - PPC uses up a lotta ammo!

In fact 230 LRN's for .45acp may well be cheats too - I have a 2 cav' Lyman for those and can churn em out pretty fast but - chances are I'll cheat a bit and get some bulk Rainiers or similar.

Main casting in truth is for more ''selective'' stuff - 44 mags - love the Lyman 421 which is a Keith 250 grain SWC - great bullet. Then I plan also to cast some 300 gas checks for 44 - and some 330 gas checks for .454. Also soon some .458's for 45-70.

I may yet find a 6 cavity for 45 acp 230's - we''ll see. i just put on some good music and settle to it - not bad really tho lubrisizing after is a bugger !
