I started reloading when my new 30-06 wasn't accurate with store bought ammo. Then i started loading for all my calibers rifle and handgun. At the time the rcbs rockchucker kit with the accessorie kits was only $59 each. The 45acp rounds cost me $0.05 per round in the '70's. I'm so far ahead i still have reloaded ammo i loaded in the 70's.

Now i have upgraded to the LEE Pro 1000 progressive presses and the LEE master reloader. There way faster in reloading ammo than the single presses if you load a lot of plan on reloading a lot. We save many $$$ and the only loss is our time. Using the progressive presses saves time and lots of time too.

I ran about 8k of 308win ammo in the LEE RGB 308win dies that cost me $8 new without a problem. Any caliber i add now is with lee dies for sure. I like to shoot all summer and reload all winter.

With my 338win mag ammo hitting $70 a box of 20 brand new i'm glad i can reload for it now.
