I was advised and still use the Lee Anniversary kit as a starter press. I have also graduated to the 4 hole turret press like was suggested and it is pretty sweet also.
I use H110/W296 as well. Have used some AA1680.
Have just started looking at shooter's pro shop for bullets.
Brass has been posted on here, and PDA runs some deals as well.
I agree with above about the cases not resizing correctly. I have had some of the same issues with the 300 blackout cases I have made. Seems to do better when I run them through twice as well.
let it catch up and prices will go down prices were between $12 and $20 I had a .300 whisper and box of 20 was between $26 and high price of $42 that and 44 mag ammo sent me to reloading just to afford to shoot. I have used the mini chop saw but it started to bog down so I need to swap blades...
I have not used the pull downs, but have used both H110 and AA1680 with success for 300. That would be a good question on the 300 blackout forum someone there has probably used the pull downs. Just googled the pull downs and it does look to be a cheap way to plink around.
