First time poster, long time lurker (10 years off and on!) here. I'd first like to thank everyone that contributes here, so much great information!
My specific situation: I'm interested in getting into reloading, primarily to reload for my .375 Weatherby Mag and .300 Win Mag, (maybe .223 Rem and assorted pistol rounds at a later date).
After some research, I was interested in the Lee Classic Turret press, so I wouldn't have to change dies out of the press, and also, the Lee Pro Auto Disk powder measure, so I wouldn't have to hand measure every powder load. But, I don't know if the Pro Auto Disk will dispense enough powder even with the Double Disk kit for the .375. Hodgdon is showing around 70-90 grains on average for these powders, depending on the desired velocity:
Hodgdon H4831
Hodgdon Hybrid 100V
Hodgdon H4350
Hodgdon H414
Hodgdon H380
Does anyone know if the Double Disk kit will dispense enough? If not, is there another direction I could go that automates the powder loading? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Note: I believe Redding is the only manufacturer to still make dies for the 375 Weatherby, if that makes a difference.
For interests' sake, here's the rifles in question, Flaig's built Sako L61R with Douglas Heavy Barrel, and a Long Rifles Inc. built Stiller TAC 300, Barlien Barrel, AI chassis, Timney trigger:
Thanks!
