I didn't find that to be a fact. I guess it depends on how many rounds you load in a sitting whether its worthwhile for you.I find handling the tiny primers awkward.
Some reloaders like the "feel" of priming by hand. That is to say they feel the primer going to the right depth. If you are getting the proper seating depth priming by your setup then go with it. You just don't want those primers to stick above the case. You might look into the Lee Auto-Prime...
My Remington 870 Express was having a real problem jamming with cheap rounds. I was told to polish the chamber with steel wool on a cleaning brush to help eliminate this problem. It did eliminate the problem but now the bolt opens when I fire the gun, sometimes all the way and sometimes just a...
I've had similar problems. Only with Winchester 5.56 NATO brass. Have had it happen about 4 times in as many years. Don't know why, maybe over worked brass.
You really don't need a PTX on the LNL AP as you will be charging your round on the powder station (#3 position) right after you flare the brass (#2 position). As far as the taper crimp seating combo die, just follow the instructions included in the set and you will be good to go.
Here is a cost calculator that I use. You can do the figures for yourself. For me, my 9mm loads are more consistent and accurate than factory loads.

I picked up a bullet while picking up brass. It was a dark green color and very hard and slick, like a very hard polymer. One of the guys that was there said it was one of his reloads and the bullet is a lead bullet with something (I don't remember what he said) baked into it. He said it was a...
Try This
I'm not positive,but that looks like one my cousin had years ago for his 10/22.
As I recall there was a little handle that was used to turn the top wheel against a spring, then you would load the ammo on the rubber belt grooves. The spring would then turn the belt to feed ammo into...
Son (says the old guy while he adjusts his pants) it's just a matter of self control. I can tell you one is never enough, and one more just don't quite seem like enough. You will find yourself coming up with new reasons to buy new guns, all wiill be completely logical to you, but sound...
I reload for my GLOCK 34. I only use FMJ or encapsulated bullets in my reloads. I tried a batch of lead bullets but had very poor results with accuracy plus the barrel was a mess after only 100 rounds. Get a good reloading manual.
Give the Possum Hollow case trimmers a look. I have a Lee Zip trim for my rifle calibers that I reload, it works but it is kind of a pain plus it is very cheep. Mine left burrs on the necks of my .223s that took too much time to trim off. The Possum Hollow is faster and cuts the necks nice and...
I've have an old Colt revolver I got from a friend. I can find very little information about the gun. It has a nickle finish on it that appears to have been done later in the guns life. It does have some military inspectors stamps on the side plates. The but of the gun looks like it had a...
I had the same problem with mine. I sent Lee an e-mail, they sent me back the fix. Yout ram is simply out of alignment. Take a 1/4 " allen wrench (a "L" shaped one) Remove the shell holder and priming arm. Note that the slot your primer arm just came out of should be in the center of the two...
