Thanks. I didn’t shoot the Orange Roughy though. I do have a wild boar in mushroom risotto dish that uses pigs I shot using handloads. Maybe I will make it soon. Venison is better au Poivre with candied carrots, pappardelle in brown gravy and greens steamed in a sour brine. Flavor bomb and all local.

It tastes so much better when you harvest game live. And especially when you use handloaded ammo.
Do you plan to pool the powder into a can and re use it with a lower charge?
I have an 8lber of competition and believe it is only appropriate in 45acp and plinking 38s. Trying to make power with that fast of a powder is nonsensical..... that's just me.
When dealing with a stuck case Lee is far superior. Drive the case out and use a pipe cutter to remove the neck.... fast and easy...
Interesting...
D'OH I guess I need to get a Milwaukee handheld pipe cutter!
I cheat and pop it in the lathe but the pipe cuter was my first solution before I had it.
. I've been very impressed with the priming system and the auto drum! Out of curiosity I wanted to see what my 24.0gr TAC setting in the auto drum would drop with AR Plus(62gr FMJ powder, the settings were close). It dropped a pretty consistent 23.7gr, which is perfect for the load I like, being anywhere between 23.5&24.0gr.
Nice we use 9.6 of H110 and it's less than 1k closer to 900 I think if I recall correctly. We will have to re check that. His SBR is like an 8in barrel. Listed velocity of 1050fps is with a 16in barrel from Hodgdon. (With 190gr SubX bullets that is)Got my .22 cal bullet feeder die packaged up for it's trip back to Lee. Works great with bullets that feed with the balls in the lower hole, not so much in the top hole. The top holes are drilled about .011" deeper, so I'm wondering if that's the problem.
After that I ran a "test run" of TAC/75bthps on the six pack pro. Went great other than the 2 times I forgot to put a bullet in before running it into the seating die
Now on to .300 blackout subs once I figure my load out. I'm thinking I'm going to take the advice of @45/30-06OKIE and stick to the 9.0gr N110 load that was right at 1000fps and ran great.
Ditto
Make him fat bald and old and there I am!
I like the undersized die too. Had to stop using it recently for a couple of reasons including because I bought some .356" bullets vs .355". They just didn't like the smaller sized die but I'll go back when the larger bullets run out. Also, I wasn't expanding with smaller bullets. Made for a nice firm seat.
I tried to run without expanding, and I never could make it work. Granted, I was using some thin jacket bullets. But I still crushed a couple of cases.
I never crushed cases--I slightly chamfer them all. And I attribute success to Xtreme plated bullets and Redding competition seater which holds bullet straight.
