Lee Loader

Living in this oppressive state and seeing the gun/ammo laws being passed in the middle of the night I decided it was time to become self sufficient. I can't shoot a lot and when I hunt it's mostly deer hunting with rifled shotgun but I wanted to be able to feed all my guns as needed with ample spares. I did a lot of research and watched a bunch of videos & decided the Lee 4-hole turret Press was right for me. I drove to Cabela's in CT and saw a sale on 22LR ammo I was told I couldn't buy it without a CT ammo permit. I saw the hand writing on the wall. They were willing to sell me reloading equipment though. I bought the Lee Classic Turret kit with the Auto disk some 223 brass, 224 bullets a set of Lee dies & a few pounds of powder and started to acquire more components. Unfortunately I don't have a lot of time to shoot therefore my load developing is lacking so I haven't loaded much ammo. I am a NYS certified firefighter, I vol. for 19yrs. I'm a full time heating tech as well for 25yrs. I also have a background in all aspects of home construction & repair.

Good calls all the way around. I deserted rimfire for a while after 2012 stuff but I came back around...after I learned reloading basics. Welcome.

Welcome. Lots of handloading expertise here to draw upon. The turret press is a great product.

Welcome from Remote Alaska...

223 is my 22 cal... cheaper to load with stuff like 6gr of Red Dot.. that is a heck of a lot of rounds per pound.. with cast 50gr bator Cast bullets it is reallllllll cheap to load..

Welcome to the forum! Good decisions on reloading and the equipment. Due to the hoarding of the BHO years, I wasn't able to buy 22RF in my rural area for years. I sold all my rimfires, and my 22 is the 218 Bee; haven't looked back and because of the shortage I experienced, and I would never consider another rimfire. I shoot so that I can reload, so the move fit my desires all around.

Oh, I'm a rifled slug caster, reloader, and shooter.

Welcome, and thanks for your years of volunteer service.
