I was just humbled by how George has helped to get me able to reload with cast boolits. Not sure what, if anything, he took since my workshop is currently a mess. :)
This does move me outta the dark ages of just a Lee Loader and a scoop though. This package had a little scale in it - what a blessing. I had been forced to use the closest Lee scoop + the TLAR method - That Looks About Right - by not filling the scoop completely. I used the scoop last night, filled to the point I was guessing was "about" 5 grains of TiteGroup. I was pretty close; the scale said 4.9. Of course, how much variance there was from load to load doing it this way is anybody's guess, lol. I only tried it the one time.

I'm guessing with this new equipment I'll be able to beat my previous record of 10 rnds/hour.... The Lee is handy, but Fast it is not. :D

Thank you so much George,
Dave

Stick around, there is so much to learn and this is the place. I am happy to hear you received a visit from George or maybe that was one of his minions....... I agree George and his minions are soooo awesome.

George has the skills of bigfoot. No one ever gets to lay eyes on him. George is a forum Saint.

Knightflyer. I have an old orange Lyman 55 powder measure that is just gathering dust on the bench. The powder tube is stained because some one left some powder in it, don't ask me how I know this. I used it for years before I got something better. You will have to weigh each charge because I could never get it dialed in to throw a consistent charge. It is not to bad but I weighed each one just to keep an eye on it. I don't have any manual but I think you can download one. PM me if you want it and I will see if George will drop it off.
