    Lee Loader Fun

    Posted this on another forum. Thought I'd share here as well. Been reloading for decades. First loader purchased was a Dillon 550. Added a Lee Classic Cast Turret. Added a Lee Challenger Single Stage. Added an RCBS bench primer. Added a Dillon 600 Super Swage. Added a Lee Hand Press. Sold...

    RCBS Auto Priming Tool

    All, Bought one of these several weeks back. I just finished priming 972 .223 cases in a little over a few hours. Most tedious part was loading the single priming tube (which I will be making more of). Best $79.00 I've spent in a long time. Just wanted to share. Uncle Chan

    Chamfer Curiosity

    Been reloading for over a decade now. Never had any problems with the way I do things. But, as I was prepping 223 cases today, I got to wondering about chamfering and deburing? I put a good angle on my cases, inside and out. Too much? I don't know. Never had a problem. How much chamfer...

    Gifted Winchester Model 25 12ga

    Good Afternoon, I was gifted a Winchester Model 25 12ga this weekend. I know very little about this model and rather than spending hours on google, I was hoping that you fine folks might give me your opinions of this model. I've a Model 12 that I love and I know this is a solid frame model...

    Chamfer/Debur Tool

    Other than the RCBS tool that attaches to the trimmer, does any other company make a chamfering/deburring combination tool to allow the reloader to do both simultaneously? I'm doing a few thousand cases a month and I'm VERY tired of doing all of the chamfering and deburring by hand. A...

    Military Crimp Remoal Opinion Needed

    Military Crimp Removal Opinion Needed Folks, I was given about 3000 LC 223 shells with military crimps. I've cleaned the cases, resized them, and removed the primers. Now I need to remove the military crimp. I'm dithering between a Dillon Super Swage, and RCBS swager, and a CH4D primer...

    Battery Lead

    All, I've about 500lbs of battery lead already formed into ingots by my father-in-law. He wants to give them to me for casting. I've heard lot's of "bad" stuff about battery lead, so I've mixed feelings on it. These were formed a couple decades ago. Should I snag or pass? Uncle...

    Lee Classic Loader VS Lyman 310

    If you had to choose between the two, which one and why? Simple curiosity, that's all. Uncle Chan

    SHTF Rifle/Shotgun

    If a person could have just one rifle/shotgun in a post apocalyptic world, what would your choice be? I'd probably use a flintlock. Lead would be easy enough to scrounge. I can make my own powder. And flint is a common stone where I live. And you?

    Small reliable portable scales

    All.... I have a SHTF bag that I use for reloading. It is filled to the brim with stuff I use for reloading at the range, at the RV, or just away from home. One thing I don't have in there, but could certainly use is a small reliable portable scales, balance beam or electronic...

    Broke Lee 223 Decapping Pin

    Good Evening, Well, I was messing with my new hand press sizing and depriming about 300 223 cases and I bent the pin on my Lee 223 Sizing/Decapping die. An attempt to straighten it broke it instead. :uhoh: I've not called Lee yet for a replacement part. My question to you all, how...

    X-Terminator in 30-30 Win

    All, Anyone use X-Terminator for loading Win 30-30? Trying to come up with one for a 1960's Win 94 Lever. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks! UC

    Lee Loader and Mini-14

    I put together a SHTF pack the other day, only by coincidence. It contained all of the components for me to reload out of my RV when camping (the main component being a Lee Hand Press). This got me to thinking about using a Lee Loader in a smaller pack or in the butt stock of a rifle...

    Tapco Mini-14 Mags

    All, Searched for info, but only found on small thread on it. Has anyone used the Tapco Mini-14 mags? I use their mags in my SKS and they are first rate. And, truth be told, I can't afford Ruger Factory mags. I'd like to try the Tapco ones. So, anyone try them? Uncle Chan

    X-Terminator in 30-06

    Anyone here ever load 30-06 with X-Terminator? I just bought 10lbs for $100.00 for loading my .223 and was wondering if it has application in 30-06. Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

    30-06 Deer Load Requested

    All, I recently purchased a Savage 111 30-06. Synthetic Stock. Incredibly light. I'm a recoil weeney. Any recommendations for a light accurate deer load? Although sometimes we have a shot out to 300 yrds, most are within 100. What would you suggest? Uncle Chan

    Mounting a Uniflow on a Lee Classic Turret

    All, I'm fed-up with my Lee Auto Pro. I've done just about everything I can think of to get some consistent throws but have had no luck. I don't feel like tinkering with it any more. I'm looking at adding a RCBS Uniflow to the setup for both .223 and 45-70. Unfortunately, I'm not sure of...

    Lee Experts, What Do I Need To.......

    Good evening everyone! I hope you all are having a good weekend! I was hoping that you all could help me??? I have a Lee Challenger Single Stage press that I load 99% of my rifle stuff on. Lately, I loaded about 1000 rounds of 223 on it. The most cumbersome part of the process was...
