I started loading for High Power rifle in 1973 and Center Fire Handgun in 1975. I started with an RCBS Junior then upgraded to a Rock Chucker, used a LEE Turret for handgun for a while. Now I load everything on Ponsness Warren presses. I shot trap for a while in college and borrowed a friends MEC to load Winchester AA's. I cast bullets while in college from lead recycled from the LE range. I've owned a few wildcat rifles over the years, so my experience as a reloader is pretty broad. I hunt and all the deer that I've harvested have been taken with handloaded cartridges. The only ammo I buy now is .22's and shotgun slugs.
