I used to reload ammo on a Rockchucker press back in the 80’s and 90’s, so it’s been a minute. I’ve been stacking factory ammunition pretty deep over the past few years, and planned to keep building up my stash. I toyed with the idea of getting back into reloading down the road but hadn’t really priced anything out seriously...but I figured it was better at this point to just add to the cases of factory ammo.
But a sporting clay shooting buddy at the American Legion comes up to me yesterday and asks me if I’m interested in buying his reloading gear. I had no idea he even reloaded centerfire pistol ammo...we only shoot shotguns together.
Anyway, he has a Dillon 650 setup. He’s gonna throw in everything he has, including his sets of dies (9, 10, .45, .38, 30-30, 270, ‘06), scales, tumbler, bunch of brass, assorted bullets, primers, powder...not sure what else he has...everything but his loaded ammo. All for $500.
Right off the bat, it covers the pistol rounds i shoot. I’ll need to add a few rifle calibers, but that shouldn’t be an issue.
Just looking for a logic check here, since this seems like a very good deal...and I rarely fall across really great deals. Thoughts? Thanks...I’m weak in my reloading wisdom these days...
