This morning when I got up I set the tumbler away with 400 Kynoch 310 cases having shot the last of the batch last night.
Later I dumped the boolits onto the oven tray and popped them into my casting oven, and turned it on.
Sat a bottle of 45/45/10 in a pudding bowl of very hot water.
When my oven thermometer got to around 200 degrees I started dumping batches of about 100 boolits into my tumbling bowl and added few drops of the now runny 45/45/10. Shooggled the boolits around in the bowl 'till thinly covered with the lube and then decanted them onto my drying trays.
An hour later the boolits were dry and ready to load.
Turned the tumbler off and shook the media from the net bag the cases were in back into the tub and dumped the cases into a container for reloading.
After lunch I sat down at my Redding T7 with a Lyman universal de-capping die and a Lee Pro auto disc powder dispenser set to drop 3 gns of Vihtavuori N320. Put 100 small rifle primers in the priming tube, popped that into the priming mechanism, screwed the blast tube in place and set away. De-prime, prime, move turret one station, raise the ram and activate the powder drop, lower the ram, move turret back one station, remove the case, check powder in case and hand seat the boolit, place in ammo box and repeat 99 times, loaded up 100 rounds in no time. Log the load in the data book, write label and stick in ammo box, all ready to shoot.
Fun or what?
