Greetings and salutations

Hello,

Hi all, pleased to meetcha (extends virtual handshake). I am an almost-old reloader, got my start about 20 years and umpteen thousands of rounds ago with a Lee anniversary single stage kit. I've upgraded/changed a few pieces over the years (mainly use a Pacific and CH press for my single-stage stuff these days), but I am still using a fair bit of the parts that came in that Lee kit (powder measure, scale, powder funnel, flash hole cleaner, chamfer tool, etc), as well as a Lee hand press (the 'nutcracker' looking thing), a Lee C press for light duty stuff (crimping 5.56 for instance), and a Pro 1000 I picked up recently to use for size+prime+flare on my pistol brass (and 5.56, minus the flare), while still using a standalone powder measure and CH press for charging and seating. (RCBS Uniflow for ball powder, Lee 'Perfect' from that old anniversary kit for stick powder).

Anyway, that's more than enough for a 'hi yall' message, so I reckon I'll leave it at that. Looking forward to discussing reloading adventures with like-ish minded folks.

Hello Jack & welcome. Please be patient, the site has just returned from a meltdown.
Great people here, none afraid to share knowledge. The end of this coming October I'll
have been loading for 58 years. Again, welcome.
