Well I've had some things for AR loads for a while but finally bit the bullet on the rest today. I've had the Lee powder through die and shellplate for my Pro 1000 for a while (came with the used one I bought that had a full set of 38 special dies). Been slowly building up powders and have 3lbs IMR4895 and 1lb CFE223. Finally happened upon some CCI No 41s today (got 700) and decided to just go ahead and throw down on the rest of the things I need. Also have over 500 once fired cases I've been saving up for a while.
From Midway I purchased the Lee RGB 2 die set (full length sizing die and seating die, non-carbide), 2 Pro 1000 turrets (will have one setup with just sizing and then another with powder and seating dies), Lee rifle case feeder and collator, FA tumbler kit (HF ultrasonic I had sprung a leak right in the middle of the basin and I'm a bit past the return date, plus I want something that gets brass extra shiny), Hornady primer pocket reamer, Lee sizing lube, Lee double disk kit, and 500 dogtown 55gr HP (only 55gr I could find in stock).
From Brownells I decided to go for at least one pricey item for this and picked up the WFT in 223, I figure if anything is worth spending a bit of extra money on it's the thing that ensure good headspacing (and not having endless wrist throbbing hours of using a lee trimmer).
Anything I'm missing in all of this?
Any advice for someone who's only reloaded 9mm up to this point?
