[QUOTE="nhenry, post: 3069827, member: 117469"] After a basement flood ruined my reloading bench and forced me to move my family, I'm finding it hard to gather the motivation to reload much nowadays. I don't have a designated area for it anymore, so I have to use C-clamps and mount the press to my kitchen's bar. In a normal year, I'd usually load around 500 rounds. I know that's not much compared to a lot of the fine folks here, but it was enough for me and my shooting habits (which have also taken a turn for the worse due to financial hardships). I finally got the motivation to load just 43 rounds (all the bullets I had left in a box) of 280 AI, enough for some range practice, coyotes, and a deer or two at the end of the season. I did the load work for this particular load at the beginning of the year on a pretty warm stretch of winter — around 50-60°. This load features 120gr TTSX stuffed on top of H100V. The igniter is a Remington 9 1/2. The case is twice fired Peterson, the best brass I've used. They scorch along at 3405 fps on avg. Out of my gun, if my shooting is up to it on the day, they'll cluster 5 into 3/4" Thanks you anyone who bothered to read this.
