Weirds tool you use for reloading? Started using my balls.

[s4alex]

So, a few weeks back while I was loading up some 40, I was paying too much attention to my rhythm and making sure the bullets get seated right.

Then I looked at my primer and noticed it wasn't advancing. Crap. So apparently it was time to clean the priming system as a little too much power had gotten in there.

Anyways, it turns out that I had a bout a dozen rounds through with no primer. So, out with the FA bullet hammer.

Now I just needed something to whack it against. I didn't feel like going outside, nor hitting the floor as I do not have a cement floor in my garage. The last pieces of wood I was using cracked.

So, I found the perfect tool. My balls. Bowling balls to be exact. It is perfect for using the bullet puller on. Now I just need to find a way to mount it on my reloading bench.

tl;dr: s4alex smacks his balls with a hammer.

i use a counter sink bit to take a bit of edge off crimped primer pockets i use a glass ashtray from straw hat pizza to hold my 223 bullets when loading its easier to pick them out of that and it stays put

I smack my hammer on the end of a 20 lbs dumbbell.

I use a lot of Chipotle Burrito Bowl tops to sort all my stuff in. They come in handy for just about any purpose.

Made a tray out of peg board to hold about 260 rounds... Maybe not weird but different...

Sig material?

I use mayonnaise and peanut butter plastic jars for cast projectiles and primed pistol cases. I also use a metal large dog dish to lube cases and cast projectiles.

While I don't use my balls for reloading I do use Fresbies for sorting brass. They will hold a couple 100 cases and work really well.

about a foot long piece of train rail I use as an anvil for my bullet puller

I also spray static guard on my chair and on all of my media sifting stuff

Did you cut holes in you frisbees? Like one frisbee for each caliber you are sorting? That is another idea I might have to try.

I am going to assume that you are talking about a real train.. not a toy train rail system? That thing must weight a ton.

Hmm, now that I think about it, my vise has an anvil on it... duh..

I also used a golf club grip on the first press I had

I use a small glass cigar ashtray to catch powder and pulled bullets. The spot for holding the cigar makes a good handle for pouring the powder back into the measure.

I also use a fishing tackle box with drawers for all my dies and press parts. One drawer for each caliber.
