Hi from Maine

Post by nsdread07 »

Hello,
Have been loading for about 35 years. Started with a RBCS press and associated accessories for 44 magnum. I ended up selling that press to a friend when I moved to Florida in 2000. Moved back to Maine in 2008 and got back into reloading about four years ago. I brought a classic turret kit from Titan and have been reloading for 44, 357. 9mm, 380 and 45 ACP. I have casting equipment but not the time to cast so I buy bullets mostly from Berry's. I have not had any issues with the press or related accessories. I hand index when loading 30.06 but find I can load 100 -150 rounds an hour when loading for my handguns. I found this site when using Cast Boolits. Nice to be able to discuss Lee without the bashing from Dillon and other press users.

Welcome to the forum. Kind of curious as to what part of Maine you're from. I'm addicted to "North Woods Law", really enjoy looking at the country side.
