Was perusing evilBay this morning and found one, the Lee Safety Disk powder measure. Of course they don't have it listed that way. Looks like it is an early version of the Auto Disk. Hmmmmmmmm.

I get about the same satisfaction when putting a newly reloaded round in a box as I did in 1969 when I pounded out a box full with my Lee Loader. I'm a tool nut and have amassed about 1.37 metric tons of reloading stuff (some I don't even know what they are!). Some are really needed, some are nice to have, and some are "just because", but no matter if I use my Co-Ax, Lee turret or one of my single stage presses there is a lot of "good feelin's" when I give the reloads a final inspection. One thing different though from way back then and today, I don't get "nervieous" when I light off a round (I remember my first 38 Specials, I held the gun at arms length, turned my head and covered my neck with my other hand)...

I really don't know if I reload to shoot or shoot to reload... ;)

I do with equipment what RD does with guns.

Try a couple times. Fiddle a bit. No worky?

Buh bye

I definitely shoot so that I can reload. Reloading goes away, I'd probably go back to traditional archery.
