    Lyman-Ideal Straightline Shotshell Reloading Kit

    I acquired this complete and unused about 25 years ago. The instructions are dated late 1949 and early 1950.

    Very nice. I remember when shotgun shell reloading just didn't make much sense. You could buy shells at the local hardware store for $ .03-.04-.05 and could buy them individually if you didn't want a whole box. Only the dedicated trap and skeet shooters were buying shot shell reloaders of any kind. I do enjoy seeing the equipment of my youth though. Thanks for the pictures. james
