I set up my new RCBS press two nights ago and was up all night studying for a final the next day, so I couldn't reload. Once the final was over, I raced home and hopped on the press. I started reloading at 8pm or so and when I finally got up for a some water it was 3am. I don't know what happened to the time in between but I found a fun hobby.
I took my fresh reloads to Angeles this morning with a couple other cal gunners, and I was thrilled by the result. Once I had my M1A dialed in, I was consistently hitting the 400yrd iron plates with nothing except irons and some helpful adjustments and advice. By the time I left, I had a 1.5 inch grouping at the 100yrd mark with irons. I'm going to be trying to improve on that with my next set of reloads, and I'll hopefully remember to bring a rear bag.
I think I'm hooked, the main reason I'm posting is the fact that my brass is in the tumbler and staring at the clock is getting boring. Anybody that reloads for your M1A, I'm more then eager to hear your accurecy reloads.
I'm currently using Reloaders 15(42 grains), Win Brass, Win Primers, Speer 150grain BT.
