I finally made the plunge last night and picked up some equipment. After I got home I went to Midway's site to order the things I couldn't find in the stores.
Here is a list of the equipment that I have or am ordering. I want to reload three calibers: .30-06, 9mm, and 7.62 Tokarev. Have I thought of everything? Am I getting the right stuff? I'd like to make sure I've got what I need before placing the order with Midway.
STUFF I HAVE
Lyman's 48th edition reloading handbook
Lee Classic Cast single stage press
Lee .30-06 die set
Lee 9mm die set
Barry's brass tumbler
Turbo Tumbler tufnut
Lyman Acculine case trimmer
Hornady "balance beam" powder scale
Frankford Arsenal impact bullet puller
MTM Case-guard loading trays
RCBS Ram-Prime
STUFF I'M ORDERING
Lee Factory Crimp die 9mm
Lee 7.62 Tok. die set
Lee Factory Crimp die 7.62 Tok.
RCBS Chamfer/Deburring tool
Lee .30-06 neck sizer die
Redding #5 powder trickler
Frankford Arsenal powder funnel set
Frankford Arsenal digital caliper
Hornady Lock-n-load press and die conversion kit
Hornady Lock-n-load bushing pack (10)
Lee 38 Super carbide sizer (for no lube resizing on 7.62 Tok.)
Lee Improved Powder Measure Kit (2 - one that I can grind to custom volumes)
So... do I have what it takes to load my cartridges? I'm only going to do neck sizing on the .30-06, so I don't need any lubrication.
Thanks for your time an opinions!
