I probably started loading my own back in '77 as I recall, dang fun when you realize you just loaded that round yourself!

I did have a squib once years ago and didn't catch it...cost me a Bar-Sto .45ACP barrel.

I still use a single stage press and use a loading block.

I'll load up 50 with powder, and then use a powerful flashlight to insure that they all received powder and that the level is consistent between them.
