    Mike,

    I just bought my first one last weekend. A 1952 sample with plenty of brass and a set of RCBS dies including the neck sizer die.

    Everything I`ve read about these was confirmed when I got it home and got a close look.

    I`m very pleased.

    well here is the story. talked all weekend to the guy. he uses 4350..one of my fav powders for these guns, he uses a 180 pointed bullet, and seated properly.( i shoot 135 thru 175) its new norma brass. i got to see a bunch of his reloaded ammo in various calibers....its one of those times that i trust the loader and are gonna shoot some and see how they do. only if not accurate /too hot..will i pull them. ( it looks to be about a 2600fps load)

    his work looks good, his notes are good........it aint a pistol load with room for a double charge.

    almost done cleaning the mine of copper/nickle out of it....it still had some grease in the bbl...think he never shot this one( he has several)
