Walmart sells Lee stuff?
I'll have to look to see if they have some dies?
Forum: Reloading Equipment
I use a Lee classic turret press and only have one turret disk...it's not so bad swapping dies out. I sure do like having 4 holes since I learned to seat and crimp in separate steps.

I am looking to get a good 22LR boltgun.

Thanks for all the hints.
I'll try heating them on a hotplate first.
and if I need to, I may try the mold release spray, I'll have to look for it, next time a place an order for other supplies.
Forum: Gas Checks
I have some tight fitting gas checks that are difficult to seat.
hornady brand on a lyman 311466 boolit.
what am I doing wrong?
they fit on my lee boolits just fine.
I think I'll be going for the Lee 125 gr RF to load for target shooting and use jacketed bullets for anything a bit more serious

I doubt I'll use it for hunting, just target shooting.
What would be a good mold to look for?
