Went out to the range to test my first batch of pistol loads. I shot six each of three different powder charges to start with. After the checking the first round for pressure signs, and checking the final round in the cylinder I found the crimp was not enough for the .44 mag recoil. Other than that, every thing went great. I have loaded shot shells before and had a Lee handloader that I used one time, but this is the first go round with a press. I have a habit with new hobbies of jumping in with both feet, so for my first press I got the Hornady L-N-L AP. There is a lot happening at once, and the going is slow at first to keep every thing straight. Any body loading 600 rounds an hour has me impressed. One other thing, shudda done this earlier.
