Reloading items that have made your life BETTER

Best investment I ever made was the Harrell's powder measure. It is certainly more expensive than some others, but it has been worth every penny.

Agreed, I've got 2 of them and I think they're worth every penny......pleasure to work with, even with the extruded powders.

My little Crow trimmer in my drill press, totally worth it.

Worlds finest trimmer.

RCBS lockout die. Hornady collet puller.

well, this is going to sound kinda stupid compared to some. but here goes.

1. large adjustment knobs for dillon powder measure with direction arrows for increase or decrease

2. replacing primer cup with a tube directly to the garbage can.

3. hitek coated bullets.

Dillon 650, Dillon RT power trimmers, Thumblers case cleaners and Hornady collet bullet puller.

I must be an odd duck. I have the RCBS priming tool. It works ok, lines up - just OK. I think it could be more precise and easy to use. The Lee Ram Primer looks intriguing.

For me it's my Lee Turret press run manually. Fast enough to stay out of trouble.

Here's to 2016 and another reload incident free year!

Bullet and Case feeders...

Damn near everything and anything from inline fabrication. They don't make anything to make a single bullet. But everything makes it a hell of a lot easier.

Dillon 550b
Three way trim head on my RCBS trimmer
Caldwell brass catcher for my AR
Forster co-ax because it's awesome

Two Dillon 550s, one set up for .38 special and the other
set up for .45 auto. Reason was large primers and small
primers. Setting up for primer sizes was a pain.

Agree, nothing has done more for my reloading than purchasing my 550B

Another thumbs up for Dillon. My 550B is a work of art. It just plane works. And it helps that it is the press that I learned to reload with.

Anti-static mat. I sometimes fight static issues that none of the tricks get rid of. I've tried Bounce sheets, Static Guard spray, humidifier and dehumidifier, etc.

At a local computer store (Microcenter), I picked up an $40 anti-static mat, set it on the reloading bench, and grounded it well. I mounted the press on it making sure there was enough bare metal on the bottom of the press. Everything I work with sits on the anti-static mat and I've had zero problems with static since then.

Lnl powder measure stand, no more unscrewing the measure to dump.
Various lock out and audiable powder checks, would not use progressive without them.
Electronic powder scale (rangemaster)
5+ station progressive machines
Auto case feeders
Spray case lube
Collet neck sizer and seperate body die
