    We are starting this week as the virus is supposed to peak over the next two weeks. I am glad that every enjoyed my "Waltzing Matilda" moment. Yesterday, Sunday I did mostly reloading .223 Remington and laundry. Why do my own laundry you think well being active military I've on occasion had to wash my own clothes, uniforms and underwear and such. My wife unfortunately believes all clothes are alike. She, a number of years, took my whitey, tighties and threw them in with a bright RED shirt. You probably guess it! My whitey, tighties came out PINK! Since I do not walk on the other side of the street. I fiqured it is probably cheaper and safer if I do them myself. (PS-- I used my PINK underwear for gun cleaning rags)

    Yesterday I did get a chance to try out my new Dillon RT 1500 case trimmer. What a sweet trimmer! I set mine up on a RCBS Rock Chucker press instead of reconfiguring my Dillon XL650. I recently moved to several Dillon progressive presses after years of using single reloading presses. The first one I pickup was a Dillon Square Deal at a very good price. I have found that Dillon absolutely guarantees their presses. Several of my single stage presses I gave to me son as he is just starting out in reloading.

    It appears that New Orleans is becoming our more recent "hot spot". They are in my prayers. Everyone stay safe, do not mix your laundry, stay healthy.
