I met a gentleman a few weeks ago who is just starting up reloading. He inherited a decent amount of stuff to start with, and I've helped where I could.

He loaded his first .222 tonight, unfortunately, we also found out a couple of spots he's lacking.


What he needs, and I don't have extras of:

powder funnel
powder trickler
powder measure(I'd like to find him a Lee perfect model)
case prep stuff(I have a Lee debur/chamfer tool for him, but he needs a trimmer of some sort for the .222)
lube pad
primer setup for the rockchucker
and a reloading manual



I'm not looking for free, cheap would be nice though. He doesn't have a whole lot of extra cash to spend all at once, so I'm trying to piece it together for him a little at a time.

I have an extra RCBS lube pad he can have. Pm me an address.

Is it an older rock chucker? I might have the primer setup for my RC supreme/IV. But I am not for sure. If I still have it I'll let you know.

I also have a lube pad.

It is the older Rockchucker. I didn't have a large enough wrench earlier to take it apart and find the date, but I'd venture a guess as a late 70's model.

I found my primer setup. Arm, 2 post and cups, spring and knurled, threaded pin. All new. If he can use them they are his. Is he loading cast or j words? Target shooting or hunting ammo?

I have a lyman universal trimmer sitting around. Not sure what pilots I have left. Would sell for a reasonable price. It'll cost a bit to ship. Let me look.

I haven't converted him to cast yet [smilie=l: He has around 1k various jacketed .222 bullets that he wants to load up.

He's loading now mainly for target shooting out of his Encore. He may hunt with it eventually, but right now he's just loading up some ammo to shoot.

We've converted about 100pcs of commercial .223 into .222, just because I have a lot of .223 pickups and he only had about 50pcs of brass. He wants to do the conversions himself, so I'm trying to get that setup for him.

I have a couple powder funnels that seem to be breeding like rabbits. PM me if interested.
