Got the chance last week to get some time in @ the reloading bench, before I got busy with summer steelhead trips.
I have a new Oly Arms M4 AR-15 chambered in 6.8 Remington SPL and @ $16.00 a box of 20 rds, the only way I can afford to shoot this sweeet rifle is reload my own ammo.
I started out with 200 rds of Coyote loads for next winter, these loads were Hornady 110 gr. V-Max w/ 24 gr. of IMR 4198
Next was 1,150 rds on plinking stuff, 115 gr. Remington FMJ w/ 24 gr. of IMR 4198...
 
I'm good to go for this weekend!

Bob, you need a Dillon. That Rockchucker is a great press for doing low volume, but 1150 rounds of plinking is way faster with a progressive.
BTW, that should be a sweet shooter. I've been hearing great things about the accuracy of that round.

Nice! I need to go sit in mine for a while. You should have seen all the coyotes I saw on the way to Idaho. You wouldn't have needed anything but a 22, most of them where 50 yards off the road.
