    Don't get many zombies in these parts,
    But I have about 700 22 LR CCI, Win and Fed bulk,
    400 9mm
    250 .38 Spec
    50 with wadcutters
    150 .357 Mag
    and enough to load another 800 9's

    There's always a chance, while there's lead in the air!
    A golf course is a willful and deliberate misuse of a perfectly good rifle range.

I'd like to reload, but the gun dents cases on ejection, so I now need to get my file out and modify it a little. I'm not sure if I can be bothered, considering how cheap some of the 223 ammo is...
    Not sure about rifle ammo, only use .22 LR, but heres where i shop
    All the 22 Calibers

    G'Day Fella's,

    Just finished Full Length Sizing (FLS) 900 odd Winchester .223Rem cases!
    I swapped 1000 once fired Win .308 cases for 1000, supposedly once fired .223 and 600 odd used .40 S&W pods.

    Anyway, after sorting and culling the shitty .223 pods, I ended up with about 900 good ones.
    Next, I'll be getting the case trimmer into action.
    All of a sudden the Dillon electric case trimmer, sounds like a great idea!
    It will keep off the streets and out of the Pub for a while!!!

    Hope you all had a Great Christmas Day!!!

    Doh!

    Hornady Training gets my vote as the best cheap ammo

    If I had an AR15 I'd want something like this for when the Zombies come. Maybe even two of them.

    25x .308
    300x 12g (mix of #0 buck and #3 [mostly] and #4)

    I bet you could with the mini factory you have. What do you reckon the rounds per minute/hour would be with your Dillon set up?

    Does 20 per min or 1200 hr
    I can get close to that by hand when loading 9mm if my arm can keep up
