whats the best kit you can buy for under $300
There again, the LEE dies are pretty decent for the money. Not sure if you can get 6.8 in carbide ( I kinda doubt it) but if you can it will keep you from having to do so much lubing. If I remember correctly, the LEE kit even comes with a small tube of rifle case lube. I dont think it comes with... -
whats the best kit you can buy for under $300
The LEE Challenger kit is hard to beat to get started. Most of the components will wind up being replaced over the years if you load much but it will get you started fairly cheap. The press is actually pretty good as far as single stage presses go. I still use one after 10 yrs. -
Cold Tracers. Somebody try this and let the rest us know how it works!
YOU: buy em I'LL: load em WE'LL: shoot em! :) -
Interesting New Products From LEE Precision
That's true! How many times have you looked at something and thought "I shoulda thought of that."? Happens to me more than I care to admit. -
Interesting New Products From LEE Precision
Man, those are some pretty cool additions to the line-up! -
My first reload
I have loaded ALOT of rounds with a LEE measure. They do feel cheap but I got consistantly accurate loads. Wish I still had it sometimes. Don't let the cheap fool ya! -
How do you pick a caliber?
Since no one else seems to have hit on the specifics of why they chose a specific round, I'll throw in my 2 cents. I chose a 30-06 for a few reasons. 1st, it is a VERY common round. 2nd, it has the range to cover any shot I ever anticipate taking, and 3rd, there are virtually unlimited... -
clean powder
I like the AA#2. Been loadin with it for a long time and it hasn't let me down yet. Super reliable and pretty darn clean IMO. -
Do Not Use Reloads in Glocks???
This^^^^ Maybe the newer ones are better but the old ones were bad enough to keep me from trying a new one. -
Do Not Use Reloads in Glocks???
I have reloaded literally thousands of rounds for Glocks. I have heard this before but have never seen it in writing anywhere. I can honestlty tell you that between me and two buddies we have easily fired 10,000 rds of reloads through our Glocks with no issues at all. I am not recommending that... -
Thinking about reloading
This is in the ammunition, accessories, etc. forum. I think there are several others as well. Might be worth looking into some of the deals on here. http://www.theoutdoorstrader.com/showthread.php?19359-WTS-Lee-Delux-Reloading-Kit-Extras&highlight=reloading -
I want to learn to reload
Ditto. I am in Newnan. If you ever find yourself over this way let me know. -
What press do you guys use??
I have used a lot of presses over the years. I always keep going back to the cheap little Lee Challenger. I guess because it is what I learned on. -

Looking to start reloading...
Lee has decent kits that will last forever. I still use a single stage (cause I'm cheap) but I would agree that a turret press is probably best for the $. -
primer question
I usually load 4.5gr w 230gr LRN but thats just for holes on paper. I prefer CCI but I hever had a single problem with Wolf primers. -
Reloading suggestions
I started reloading about 15 yrs ago. I mainly reload handgun calibers but occasionally I'll crank out some 30-06. Haven't done much reloading in the last few years but I recently started teaching two friends how to load. Hopefully they will give me the kick in the but to get back in the swing... -
Reloading forum
I was digging through some old ammo cans in the garage over the weekend and found about 800 rds of assorted 45 acp ammo i loaded about 10 yrs ago. Most was loaded with Bullseye powder and some with Clays. That Bullseye powder burns DIRTY but it sure does shoot good! Found a few old 30-06 rds...
