Liked them so well that I just got another 500 of the 45 nickel cases in the mail today from Precision Brass.

Ordered and received 600 rounds of 38 nickel. Really nice stuff. Loaded 50 rounds to test. Look really nice, hope they shoot as well as they look.

I drug out Dad's old Pacific marked Hornady red 008 today , it's been in it's shipping box mostly unused for about 35 years . I have his 45 ACP/AR which worked out because I wanted to run that bunch of 45 AR . Tough reminder about how stuff dries out. Took 250-300 to get the press loosened up an oil back in all the pivots . Decapped an sized all of the 500 I bought a while back for a 45 ACP 1x price .

I forgot my advice about new dies or after a good cleaning to over lube them for the first time especially with steel dies . Boy will they soak up some wet lube .
