Hopefully we have a couple new reloaders on the forum after Santa made his stops last night. He dropped me off an assortment of cleaning patches, and some new ammo boxes.
Yep. A new reloader here. Santa got a hernia delivering a Lee Classic Turret Kit, .38 special & .45 ACP dies, and 2000 Rainier copper plated bullets. Mrs. Claus made sure I had 2 pounds of HP-38, 1 pound of Winchester Autocomp, and 1 pound of Titegroup, 1000 X-treme bullets, and 5000 CCI primers. I had a lot of .38 special brass saved up. By noon on Saturday December 26 I had loaded and tested 3 different loads of .38 special and by mid afternoon of December 27 I had loaded 1000 rounds of .38 special and by the next day I experience the satisfaction of firing 50 rounds of my home brew which shot very well and yesterday my son shot 100 rounds of my reloads and with his younger eyes and steadier hands he shot some amazing groups. That's a lot of excitement, sense of accomplishment, and fun in just 4 days.
