Very good online reloading cost calculator : http://www.glockpost.com/forums/cmps_index.php?pageid=calculators

Here's a definitive primer on the subject : http://www.glockpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1284

Check over at www.glockpost.com forum. One of the shooters there has some experience with it. I've never used it, but the description reads pretty well and it seems to have a mixed/good rep. Are you primarily looking for case filler or the lube properties ?

Characters ? In GTR ? You gotta be kiddin me Rut :D Some a those guys need ta get out an get some fresh air instead a reloadin all da time. I heard they load steel cases, .32 Mag, some GAP and a whole lotta exotic stuff like the Monkey Magnums just adopted by *four* federal agencies...

I've had one of the exact same tumblers for a couple of years now. It has been perfect in every respect. I dog it too. I load two big coffee cans of brass per load and run it until I think about changing the brass. It runs at least 30 hrs a week and has for quite a while. Still runs great...

What charge weight of WSF are you using with the 165gr ?

triple tap Man, this is almost as bad as GTR

Double tap

Agreed. Unique or WSF, choose your poison, they can't be beat - period. #5 is shootable in 10mm light, but it is a little too slow for such light bullets. If you shoot 40 with #5 and want it to clean up or deliver a little more velocity, use a 200 gr bullet. You will see it really does...

Did you miss the replies about NBC, in response to your other question ? Or, did you already order from them ? http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=310463

A friend of mine uses a speed control from a ceiling fan. It is inductive load rated and cheap. Mounted it into one side of a 2 gang electric box with a receptacle in the other side. Plugs the Dillon primer filler thing into the plug. He's had this setup working pretty well for about 3...

Lloyd, You can improve the Dillon greatly by putting a potentiometer in the circuit to limit the amount of juice the motor gets. If you trim the motor a little, it settles down just fine. Plus, you oughta Honcho the .32 98 SWC buy so I can finally get one and quit whining about it ;)

Others have had severe issues with NBC. If it were me, I would shop elsewhere. Maybe www.keadbullets.com Good bullets, plus they're a hell of a lot cheaper. Load em with lead/cast data from published data sources. The mechanics of the loading process is the same. Bullets are ready...

... and I would venture a guess, somewhere into the tens (maybe hundreds) of millions of 158gr LSWC's have been sent outbound at 1300fps + in .357 Magnums over the last 70 years or so with Herco and Bullseye.

Not sure where the comments warning against lead running at 'magnum' velocities come from, but unless 'magnum' velocities are faster than about 2100 fps, I can tell you from first hand, BTDT, read the book, saw the movie, did the chick - twice, got several t-shirts, it isn't a problem. Where...
