I got it yesterday. Dies came in on the same day. Of course I could not wait to get it setup. Attached to a Lyman base heater.
First sized and lubed bullets were my 501 350 grainers. Worked great and i found out I did not need any heat with the Whites 50/50 lube. Nice smooth action and my setup was good from bullet one thanks to the info I had gathered here on CastBoolits.

Looks like you were having too much fun to refill your coffee cup.
What is that strange clean flat surface that your bench is on? No such thing exists in my reloading area, but I've heard stories of something called 'floor'.It's so much fun when you get your Star going. Nice setup.

Looks great! Reminds me of my girl laying by me.
Changed out the die to a .430 tonight. Set the top punch and she sized and lubed perfectly. I take luck over skill any day. LoL
