I loaded some 338/375 Ruger rounds and I loaded up 500 rounds of 9mm on my new Hornady press.

Painting the entire inside of my house. Half done. Next up turning 60 pounds of cubed elk meat into burger and sausage.  After that my new hobby will be to make daily phone calls to my taxidermist looking for my 2017 deer mount.  :tup:

Changed the oil and filter on my riding mower plus new spark plugs and gas filter. Easy if ordering off amazon.

As weather permits since it is only partially under cover, I am cutting up a 57 Chevy 4 door parts car for sections of rust-free patch panels for my 2 door hardtop. 

When not outside, reading up and studying my restoration books and manuals, on the internet watching YouTube certified mechanics and restoration expert's  :chuckle: videos. 

Otherwise, just biding time until this passes and/or the weather gets better.
It is better to be consistently incorrect than inconsistently correct...

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.

Called buddies I haven't talked with, made sure the neighbors are squared away, re-rigged a few shrimp pots, rearranged the boat yet again, rebuilt a downrigger and then cracked a few beers, not necessarily in that order.

So far so good and I like it a lot! It’s been a little bit of learning curve from the single stages that I’m use to using but I cranked out the rounds without any hiccups. I do want to buy the RCBS lockout die and eventually the Hornady case feeder.

I've been able to put on a new hanguard (Seekins NOX) and an adjustable gas block on a neglected AR, mount some optics, and get set up to clean and oil. Might not sound like much, but I don't have a lot of space to myself right now.

Going to grab a bunch of loading stuff from storage to work on some reloading. 

We are going to go full lockdown starting this week, so I'll get the kiddos prepping brass, teach them proper firearm cleaning, etc.  Maybe do some archery practice for PE.
