it looks like theres plenty of reloaders here it may be pretty handy, especialy since i see a bunch have just started recently, i know i had all sorts of questions and still do at times.

I'm just now getting set to reload. It's been about 15 years since I have done any. I bought a RCBS Rock Chucker
yesterday & spent the morning running to the lumber yard & building the bench. I'll add a Dillon 550 next month. That should do for awhile. Of course, I'll have to load some 12 & 20ga stuff, but that will have to wait for awhile. All of my re-loading equipment was stolen back then & I never replaced it because I didn't shoot much anymore. That has changed a lot lately! After a trip to Wichita to Sportsman's warehouse in the morning & I'll be ready to whip up some 45's! (Maby I should go now, It's only 1 hour from here to there.) I'll probably need advise from you re-loader's. Probably a lot of it. It's good to know youre there to help! I was gonna' get the Dillon first but changed my mind. I started with the Rock Chucker & decided to replace the one I lost so long ago with a new one.

O.K. I got my re-loading area ready, work bench with a big drawer, peg-board back & top shelf. Big metal desk from the Air Force Base in Wichita & I finished the loading bench Saturday. Attached the Rock Chucker & it's solid. Drove to The Sportsmans Wharehouse this morning to buy some bullet's & more powder. Got some other stuff also. Got back home at noon. Now I'm ready to do some 45acp ammo. OH,NO! The RCBS Carbide 45acp die set didn't come with a lock nut for the seater plug! I guess I'll run over to the Bullet Stop @ lunch time tomorrow & get one there. If they don't have one I'll have to drive from the west side of Wichita to the far east side in 5'oclock traffic & go back to Sportsman Warehouse. So far, this re-loading hobby isn't as much fun & relaxing as I remember it to be! At least the 2hr drive to Wichita & back this morning was nice.
