I'm getting ready to load 380 ACP on a Dillon press. I have a new pistol on order. Paying $25 a box for ammo is not going to work for me. I have bought the brass and boolits. I have 231 powder and primers.
Is the extra small powder bar required to load 3.0 grains of powder on a Dillon RL-1050 or a Square Deal?
I really want to load enough to prove the component mix works, and then load 1000 rounds. Spending $55 on a powder bar a bit much. I just want consistent and accurate rounds with the least amount of trouble. Loading 1000 rounds every 2 years is what I'll be doing.
What do you 380 loaders think?
