I first posted about my inherited stuff here http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=468038
Thought some of you graybeards might like to see this stuff.
I found another box with some interesting stuff in it, particularly since I'm finally gearing up to reload now.
An old Redding powder measure, looks unused/new. I'm happy about this in particular.
A redding scale, looks unused but the v notches have rusted. You think I could brush them off with some steel wool or a brass brush and it would be fine, or is this buggered beyond usefulness?
Some old RCBS dies for .45 ACP. from what I can tell, there are 2 sizing dies... one feels like aluminum and has a larger ID.
I assume that was a decapping/interior sizing die and the other sized the OD? Does that make any sense? I can't believe they made them from aluminum but that's what it feels like. The screw/pin is steel, but the outer die is aluminum I think. Weird.
Also some Lyman .38/.357 dies (which I need) and some .30-06 dies (which I may need; I have the lee deluxe dies in that caliber already.
I realize I'll have to lube my pistol brass if I use these (I was kinda planning to anyway, at least to start out), but otherwise, any reason I shouldn't use them? They haven't changed something drastic since the mid/late 60s in die design or function have they?
Some more lyman molds and handles, some lubrisizer dies .452, 457, .357, ... some gas checks and lube for the lubrisizer. think the lube will still be good?
Also this primitive set to remove military primer crimps. This should come in handy. If it works well. Anyone heard of this before?
