Just thought I would drop in and say hello before I posted. I've been reloading for around 35+ years and casting for about half that. I don't currently own a Lee press although I've had my eye on a Classic Cast turret press for awhile I just haven't pulled the trigger on it. I load a lot of pistol ammo in various calibers so it would really come in hand.
I love casting my own bullets,reloading and shooting as it's my hobby and what I enjoy doing to wind down from a long day or when I have free time to myself. I current own around 15 different Lee moulds and cast for all my rifles and handguns and I probably shoot 50 cast bullets to ever one jacketed bullet. I have quiet a few sets of Lee dies as well as push through sizer for all the bullets I cast. I still tumble lube many of my bullets but I also size and lube some on the RCBS Lube A Matic an powder coat some bullets as well,it really just depends on the application.
As the name implies all my rifles are 30 cal. not sure how it ended up like that. I cast for my Sav. 99 in 300 Sav. my Sav. 30-30 pump gun my Yugo and Chinese 26 SKS as well as my 1945 M44 and 1933 HEX 91/30 that I just refurbished,just waiting for a nice day to test some loads out in the 91/30 to see how she shoots.

Re: Hi form NC
Welcome, and happy Fourth as well. I see your missing an ak in your listing of 30 calibers. I kid I kid I know sks rifles in general are more accurate. I have lots of friends that shoot sks instead of ak's for that reason.

Re: Hi form NC
Welcome to the forum, like your rifle choices! I shoot a Rem 722 chambered in 300 Savage and my Savage 170 is chambered in 35 Rem. Shooting cast in both.
