Ok Lee Reloaders what did Santa bring for your bench ?????

I'll start. He left 5000 SR Primers on my bench. :D

Some how I think my sons and SILs were instrumental in letting Santa know what my heart desired. ;)

Well, already told you about the Co-ax press. Must say I'm really enjoying that little item. I've sized 100 or so 06' cases with it the last couple days getting ready for the "next" step in my "precision" reloading edu-ma-cation. I can find no fault with it to this point. The Hornady head space comparator and bullet comparators seemed to have missed the Sleigh but I did get a set of RCBS X-dies for 223 that I want to try out on progressive reloading start to finish in one pass on either a LM or Dillon 450. Really want to try it on a LM. Really curious to see how that goes........ I did receive a new-to-me Savage 111 in 7 mag. from my good friend and neighbor of 16 years, but the circumstances of the "gift" brings me no joy. :cry:

Those kind of gift are are sad. I hope it wasn't bequeth?

It is a pleasant 75 degrees here in Sugar Land TX. It's been a great day enjoying this family reunion and the kids going crazy with the Santa mother load of 21 century technology.

You guys are lucky.

All Santa left me was a brass squib rod.

Guess he knows me pretty well after all...:)

Only gun stuff I got was a .45 bore snake and roll pin punch set.

Very pleasing.

Santa brought 400 pieces of 380 auto brass to me and enough gift certificate moneys for my LGS to aquire the remaining Lee hardware to load previously mentioned brass. Santa was good to me this year!

To my great sorrow, it is as you say Dan. HOWEVER, reading the second part of your post about your great day, family and children at Christmas brings great solace to me. Thank you for the "mental" pictures of your day.

I got to shoot some 380 with my son .
Haven't seen him FTF in 4yr .
My Gunsmith gave me some choke tubes that should fit the true choke hacked into the A5 Steel Special bbl and threw in a Sig Saur 16" M4 bbl with the FH , gas block and tube .
Ms scored a Cannon wide body safe for us , long over due really.
