What are you doing right now??

i had to take a break..i am running the 45 ACP brass thru the Lee Bulge Buster die, and the number 1 brass that is VERY DIFFICULT to run thru is the S&B......

so, what i am doing is reading the headstamps, and chucking away all the S&B that i can, for the recycling yard...i do not need this BS of cranking on the Lyman handle to make those S&B's run thru it.

any S&B brass (and that is quite a few) will stay in the "to be reloaded" tin can...but if in the future THOSE do the same again..??

"CHUCK AWAY"........!!!!!!


i am "suspecting" the rim area is a wee bit larger to not fit into the die..???? as that is the part sticking out the tiniest bit

ok, now back to the basement.....
 
just finished the Bulge Busting of what i had waiting

the only brass that slipped thru the BB die was my new, first fired Starline Brass...ever so smooth

the second most amount of fired brass i have is Winchester, and that passed thru but not as smooth as the Starline

then in much smaller amounts of brass, RP, some LPP Federal, and frankly some (to me) no name brass...just a letter or 2, at most to ID them...and right now, i cannot recall any of that.

but that damned S&B took the cherry on top with being such a hard to rework brass, so much so, the bench top was lifting off its mount, and that ain't no lie....

what i did just do too was, i took the processed S&B, and took all of 2 casings, and inserted them into a 45 slide, to check for extractor fit...to be sure the rim was catching, and it was.

i am not about to "fight" any machine, or press to get the desired results...i'm too damned old for that shite

it was easier to toss the rest of the S&B into the recycling bin, and not bother with it any more, and the money from the recycler is better than a fight.
 
I finished setting OAL and the powder charge and ran about 300 cases. I took a break and the recliner feels pretty good.

While on the forum my laptop screen was going dark, either blinking or going black. I've restarted yesterday and today, so I'm wondering if it's starting to go bad. Another day, another issue.
