I did get some from midsouth. I have loaded a few for pattern testing. They were a good fit and I got crimps almost as good as yours. I have not shot them yet but I am expecting good patterns. Thanks so much for the heads up. I can now use up several bags of fio and cheddite hulls. I mistook your PW 375 for a Pacific. I am now using some versa Mecs . but I would like to find a PW 375. Thanks again Stoolshooter. Here's a peek of the DL-155. I really do need to get it out and run a few boxes through it. ;-) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/8CDFd7zc/Screenshot-20231011-160800-2.png)

AGS annealing machine. It's kind of a PITA to set up but makes the process easy and quick once you get going.

Went shooting Friday, fired 200 9mm and 100 .45 acp. Finished with the .45 yesterday, will start on the 9mm today. I always reload what I fired before shooting that caliber again.

Found a bag of once fired Federal Gold Metalist paper hulls I'd forgot about. Loaded them up with 1-3/8 ounces of #6 shot. Just love the smell of fired paper hulls. Don't you??? ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/PJz5kMkP/IMG-20231203-160954182.jpg)

Wow! what a find. Those must be from back when the dinosaurs roamed. Did you use a paper hull crimp starter?

Loaded up some 45-70 350 grain flat nose. Looking forward to shooting these thumpers! ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/mkzTqdMT/703-A8-B04-1-AAF-48-C0-9-E13-229487-D12-C14.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/L6gs0sBj/C8-A1857-E-07-E4-4376-8-EFC-D297-B8818429.jpg)

Yes. I got the paper Hull smooth crimp starter for the 12 gauge 600 jr years ago when I was shooting an reloading lots of Federal paper GM shot shells. I need to look into getting one for the 16 and 20 gauge 600's also. I'm lucky that the PW is set up with their crimp starter that works good on new unfired paper hulls. Then it's a snap to get a good crimp on the 600's. That's really my only complaint about the 600 is the crimp starter when using new never loaded new paper hulls.

Just finished prepping some 308. Found a 5/8 inch @100 load with H4198. Now I just need to find more powder and maybe a unicorn.

Prepped a couple thousand .45 cases. Came out all nice and shiny. Ought to last a while.
