My stepdad gave me his entire stash of reloading equipment and components.
I don't think he has reloaded a single round since the late 70's or early 80's. So, obviously not an avid reloader and the entire stash fit in a large plastic tub.
I'll have to get pics of it later and do an inventory. It took both of us to barely lift it and get it out of the house and to the back of my wagon.
Looks like around half a dozen of mostly full powder jugs. If not metal, then the round cardboard tube types. RCBS dies with a price of $15.99 each. An RCBS single stage press, some cases of pistol primers, and about 75 lbs of bullets. Most what I glanced at was in .44 Mag or .357 Mag. Don't own either.
I will have to unload the tub slowly and catalog everything.
All of it was kept in an climate-controlled gun room and looks brand new.
I'm assuming the powder and primers should still be fine 40 years later?
