Through trades and upgrades I have accumulated several reloading items that, while in perfect working order, are duplicates of the items I use for my casting and reloading.
In this first batch of stuff I have the following:

1. Lyman .223 FL sizing die
2. Lyman .38 Special M die (38P)Spoken for
3. RCBS .308 Win 2 die set (FL sizing and seating dies) Spoken for
4. Lee Perfect Powder measure. It's been lubed with graphite/acetone and turns very smoothly. Spoken for
5. Pacific powder scale (beam type). Older model, but very accurate. Spoken for
6. Lee Auto-disk measuring system. This gizmo came with my turret press kit, and has never been used. I assume it's complete; has 4 disks. Spoken for

Post here what you need and why, and I'll try to make sure everything goes to deserving reloaders.

#5 Pacific powder scale. Not for me, but for a young man (14yo) I'm teaching to reload. He lives with his single parent mom. We "started" him at Christmas with a Lee loader for his 30-30 with intentions of giving him a press and dies, etc for his birthday in July. I have the press and dies but do need scales and some other items. I'm sure he would put them to good use.

If I may, I would like to take the powder measure. I'm taking it for myself as i'm starting into reloading and I cannot afford what I need to reload.

I could use the beam scale. I'm just getting started reloading, and don't have a scale yet. My Dillon square deal 'B' should be here next week.

Out of curiosity..... How do you lube the powder measure? Mine sticks sometimes.

Moly or graphite.

Yeah, one of the members here posted a fix that works well on the Lee Perfect: disassemble the drum, make a slurry of graphite powder and acetone, apply to the outside of the plastic drum, re-assemble. It's messy, but it works.

I will take the 223fl die if no one wants it. Mine Lee is all messed up and scratches the sweet baby jesus out of the brass. Haven't been able to make 223 for over 6 months.
Side note. I must find that sticky on the graphite trick. Does it happen to fit the leaky powder issue too?

You got it.
As for the graphite lubing, not sure if it was a sticky, but it solved 95% of the leaking in my Lee Perfect.
