They helped me last year with a set of dies my son wanted for Christmas. I thought they bent over backwards to help.

As previously presented in the Reloading Bench thread by Duke Nukem.....
this photo just screams for a "caption contest". So get you thinking caps on and try to keep it clean. :mrgreen:

Stiffness of any construction comes mostly from the shape of the building material and proper gusseting of the corners, not the material itself. Metals are only preferred for commercial and...

No problem. That'll be $3 please. :mrgreen:

I happen to have a PDF of the original Lee Pro-1000 instructions that show how to swap all that stuff out. If anyone needs it, just drop me a PM with your private email address.

These are found on the early Dillon dies, I'm not sure about the newer ones. The part in your hand needs a 1/4 ID split ring lock washer to insure it stays in place. You can see the shoulder...

Great tip. Thanks!

Yes, you'll be able to press the knobs onto your Knobkerrie. :mrgreen:

Is that "fruits, nuts & flakes" as in California ??? :groner:

I think you'll find you'll need more of that stuff than you realize. And by the time you do, you'll have to pay more than you were able squeeze out of the sale of yours. Not only that, if your RCBS...

What's wrong with America became vividly clear when I went to Germany a year ago to see my son, who's stationed at Ramstien AFB. The Germans would rather walk or bicycle to work for years rather than...

That's quite a deal. Congratulations on a real find!

Just goes to show, there are good deals out there, but they always come through a "friend of a friend".

I researched my 550B purchase fairly thoroughly and I think I got it right. I was reloading 2 calibers and had a chance at a third fairly soon. Here's what I ordered...

Boxers! :razz:

Not certain about special expansion needs for lead boolits, but I can add this... Once the brass is fired in your gun, you don't need FL resizing. That will only stress the cartridge and lead to its...

IMHO you may be confusing Ease of operating the powder measure with the Accuracy of the load of powder that's being dispensed. In all powder measures, whether automatic or manual, there is some type...

I'm with no_1. Given there is little difference in price, personally I'd prefer a new one with the primer buzzer, all new powder slides, and other modern refinements. Remember that your acquaintance,...

I'll be glad to send you my "yellow set", you can put them together and hopefully figure it out! Send me a PM.

Cast boolits can indeed "blow up" if the boolit in question is a cast Civil War iron cannonball, still filled with black powder.

See........

Check out this news story. Of course the "boolit" in question was cast Fe and not Pb, and even though the caliber was slightly larger than norm, I found it very interesting reading....

I have had several of those presses and they do a good job.

I happen to have a PDF of the original factory instructions which I'll be happy to send to you if I could get your personal...

If you'll start with round nose bullets, the minimum powder charge, and check the OA lengths you'll have absolutely no trouble with 9mm.

As suggested, build up a dummy cartridge to help...

Some ideas...

• The Dillon company has a forum on their web site. You might log on there and ask them. There might be a known issue with your powder dispenser. One thing for sure is that the...

Thanks guys for the various insights.

Yes, I agree, lube is not THE most important thing to a 22. However it was an article similar to what Run5run quoted that got me thinking. Eley ammo has a...

The 9mm is, I agree, not an easy cartridge to start with. On top of all that, not all European 9mm manufacturers start their rifling as far from the chamber as those made in the USA. I...
