Thanks for the information. I’ll load a few with 6.0 gr of True Blue and go from there. I’ve been using Unique and CFE Pistol with no issues. I have had this powder for awhile and wanted to try it again. Again thanks for the info.

I found them in my Dad's workshop earlier this year. The dies are for a .243 Win. I did take them apart clean them well in my vibrator. I had to request a new seater plug from RCBS though.

I have been getting a bit antsy to do some reloading. Unfortunately, my reloading setup is in the garage and the temperature hasn't been above 50 degrees. Is there a temperature that you should use as a minimum to begin setting up to reload?
That is the 700 classic from 1982. I made the mistake 6 years ago and passed on one at a local gunshop. A friend has this rifle, it is an accurate and fun rifle to shoot. Very nice rifle and a very good find.
I recently purchased a couple of boxes of Fiocchi .223 55gn ammunition. What is the quality of the brass compared to other brass, ie Remington, Winchester.
When I gave my dad back his Rockchucker press, I happened on a article, I think Handloader, RCBS now casts its Rockchucker press frames in China. I then decided on the Big Boss at that time. Its a great press. I would also consider the Lee Classic Cast press if I were in the market for...
