Thanks. I was lucky to get one I guess. Reloading stuff is pretty hard to get now like everything else. Price have increaced too. I believe I got this at normal pricing though. I can't wait to start

I have an old version of that press. They are built very solid.

Good luck with the reloading, it can be a lot of fun customizing a round for your particular needs. Reloading supplies are still difficult to come by, particularly primers for me. I have noticed that powders and bullets are showing up in inventories, hopefully this buying frenzy may have hit a peak and might get back to something approaching normal in a couple of months.

Thanks guys. I was able to get the full kit so I'm happy about that. Not having to get stuff separately. I can get better stuff as a I discover what needs improvement. I guess its good I'm starting now with the prices higher. That way I don't know what I missed. And if it ever goes down then it will be a treat haha.

Excellent choice. You will be very happy with it.

I'm sure I will. I've heard good stuff about it and like how affordable it is. I'm not really looking to load boatloads of ammo each week. Just something to tinker with, have fun, and maybe shoot a little more frequently.

I also have a Lee Press and Lee dies...they are very well made and I've had zero problems with mine. Lee is also very quick to answer any questions you may have.

Have Fun

Good to hear

. I'm sure it will be a blast. Literally

That kit looks pretty good. Get a powder trickler, and some case lube, and you will be good to go.

Thanks for the tips. This is all a foreign subject to me haha. I have alot to learn.

Read the Lee load book, it's full of tips and simple instructions on how to use the equipment.

ponycarman · Post by **ponycarman** » Tue Apr 02, 2013 4:31 pm

I'll have to get a copy of it. I've been looking at different reloading manual's.

Lee also has some excellent "how-to" videos on their website---good stuff that helps explain the written instructions and particularly helpful when setting up the dies.

Both the Sierra and Lee loading manuals have nice sections on 7.62x54R. Lyman is also a highly recommended handloading reference book.

Good deal. I'll have to grab a couple different sources of reference. I have alot of info save on my pc but I know tjat reallu can't replace a good paper manual or guide.

I also have to descide which caliber to start with first

It used to be that Lee included that book with all it's reloading kits, you may be getting it.
