RE: [guntotingliberals] reloading

The first thing you should do is get the Dillon 650 video tape.
It is VERY dull, BUT it gives a very good view of what progressive presses
are like, even if you decide to buy another brand of progressive press.

I have had my Dillon 650 for 5 years now. They have great customer support,
lifetime warranty. If you do decide to get a Dillon 650, don't skimp on the
automatic shell feeder. It one of the features that makes volume reloading
possible.

I shoot bullseye and at 180 rounds per official "2700" match and 90-120
rounds per week for club league matches a progressive press is a necessity
(Unless I win the lottery, then HOORAY, no more reloading ;-)

If you have been reloading on a single stage press you know enough to be
able to check the stages for what should and should not be in each case at
each stage.

Subject: [guntotingliberals] reloading




Ok this forum is much too quite. I don't know if there are any
reloaders in here but I'll ask and find out. I'm thinking about
moving away from my Hornady L-N-L single stage to either a
progressive or turrett press. Actually I will keep my single stage
and just add another press. I would like to be able to use all the
dies I have in Hornady bushings but I'm not sure I want to buy the
Hornady progressive press. I know lots of people love the Dillons but
the political crap on his website just turns me away. I've looked at
Lyman and Redding turrets and also Ponsness Warren and Champion. I
rather like the idea of a turret press. Being able to closely monitor
the process appeals to me. I've probably heard too many horror
stories about progressives and mistakes. Any thoughts out there in
cyber shooting world?

But they are really jerks. I thought about buying a used one but then I read an article comparing the Hornandy progressive to the Dillon. The Hornady seemed a...

I read the article you linked to, and it was really interesting, but it seems like the author has a chip on his shoulder. There is some truth to the things he...

Get a real progressive-- IMHO there's far less chance of mistakes if it auto-indexes, and with a casefeeder, you only do one thing (put bullet on case), so you...

Yep, good point R, although listening to advice and contributing to profit are two very different things. If Dillon would only keep their political opinions...
