Not a Phillips run, but I did stop at the Reloading Store and picked up everything I need. It cost me about $12 more than it would have at Phillips, but I can dial in the machine and test some shells on Sunday.

Eagle Magnum shot was $47.
Primers were $30.
That's the extra $12, powder was the same price.

I only bought 1lb of powder, 25lbs of shot and 1000 primers. I want to make sure I like the load before I spend big bucks on supplies.



The loading bench is ready to go...

Reclaimed is expensive down there. It is usually $1/lb up here.

Alternatively, the best deal I have found on new shot is $45.99/25lb bag.

Thanks, just need to add some mouldings to catch run-away shot and paint it and it will be final. But for right now it will get the job done

Amazing how prices vary from one place to another. At $1 per lb, I'd shoot a lot of reclaimed.

I use mec jr's, and the reclaimed seem to give me problems, mostly hanging up in the drop tube on 2 of my reloaders, if prices get bad, I may have to try it again

Not yet, Sunday...
The hulls just arrived today. Spent a couple hours setting up the primer feed, primer seating and measuring powder charges.
Tomorrow I will adjust the crimp and run off 100 or so to test on Sunday.

Thanks, the crimps are a little off, I'll work on that tomorrow. I will test them out Sunday and report back, they should be fine, very close to the factory loads I currently shoot.

Have fun at the clinic. I'm shooting the Sansei next month, Dave was setting up a squad, don't know if it's full yet.
See ya Sunday
