Quarantine Reloading Bench - Page 2

That's great Matt! Those are some great pictures. My kids enjoy(I hope) reloading as well. Last night in fact, my daughter showed my father(who has never loaded a shotgun shell in his life) how to load one.

My kids also enjoy finding free empties at the sporting clay range. We have had fun making Shotgun Shell Christmas Light sets the past couple years. I use the press to crimp an empty shell and then they put the lights in(and for some lights we use a glue gun).

I am glad my kids have taken to my outdoor hobbies just like yours. It's one of many reasons I feel lucky anymore.

Can I borrow your kids? Went out to shoot clays today and found that I have a bunch of shells (8-10 boxes?) with no powder. Got home and found the powder drop tube blocked. GRRR! Looks like I've got several days of shell disassembly to try again. Now also have to try to figure out which shells are the blanks
