    Default Trimming .223 cases.

    Trimming .223 cases this morning. Did 500 at a rate of 1 sec per case using the Giraud powered case trimmer which also does the mouth prep as part of the same operation. Whatta Hobby!

    Looking for another Gracey so one can be .30 cal and the other .22. Have the bushings for each cartridge.

    Having a ball finding what this brass, bullet and powder like. 20 gn of 30 yr old IMR-4198 in Starline cases with a Berger 55 gn varmint bullet set off with 205m primers. Used a .003 neck tension and a 2.26 COAL for this batch. Not too shabby for an old Savage 110 in .223. Shot at 100 yds off a Caldwell " The Rock" front rest and a rear rabbit bag. Whatta Hobby!

    I would venture to say "not shabby at all."
    Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.
