I recently inherited a number of reloading supplies from my late uncle and some stuff my dad was no longer using. I am new to reloading, and have hesitated flat out asking for help, but after a month of cleaning researching, and figuring out how all this equipment works I am still lost as to what the best decision to do with this equipment is.
To begin I have a Universal Star Reloader currently set up in .45, as well as a Star luber and resizer with some of the original manuals. There also seems to be a number of length and size primer tubes, as well as spare parts like primer feeds and powder measure?
Secondly I got from my dad a True Line Junior currently set up in .38.
Thirdly I have 3 die sets in 45C, 45ACP and .38 respectively for a Pacific Reloader. (Which I dont have, who knows what happened to it.)
Now I have done a lot of research on the Star reloader and realize its history and place. Unfortunately currently I don't shoot .45. I do however shoot a lot of .38, .357, .223, and .40.
Is it worth it to sell all this stuff and buy myself a decent modern setup (although from what I understand this is all quality despite its age) Or should I go the distance to get a .38 plate and such for the Star and figure out what to do with the rest.
Sorry this is so long, but I don't know anyone that knows anything about this stuff.
