I load mostly 9mm on mine. While the primer system on the press took some tweaking I did get working fairly well. However I prefer to prime off of the press.
I pre prime brass when I've got a few minutes. For me it just seems to make the process simpler.
I bought several used auto disk...
After sizing, each case is chucked in a drill to be trimmed, chamfered, deburred, applied with brass polish and spun in a clean dry shop towel to remove the case lube. Can't say that removing the lube improves things but external case defects such as dents or cracks are easier to feel while...
So let's get this straight. You worked but didn't save anything and now you want the working stiffs to foot the bill because you got into financial trouble?
Cool.

I have never counted but it is at least a couple hundred for each rifle.
I did buy a Lee Classic turret press a couple of years ago and I have thousands of 9mm plinking rounds loaded up.
I've still got test loads for my rifles I never got a chance to shoot.

My 257 Roberts has proven to be accepting of many powder and bullet combos. I've had sub 1" groups (the way I shoot is as good as it gets) with IMR 4350, IMR 4064' and Reloader 19.

I inherited a couple of frames from my father along with barrels in 22 Hornet, 223, 30-30, 45 Colt/410, 357 Maximum, 45-70. I never had much interest in them until a couple of years ago. I've since added 22Lr, 44 Mag, and last week picked up a 14" 7-30 Waters barrel.
My first venture into...
My go to ammo I shot in my first .06 was a 48.0 grain dose behind a Sierra 165 Spbt or hp. My father loaded them for me and I took my first few Blacktails and one elk with them.
Mild load but killed 'em if I could hit 'em .

Over the years I've done most of my priming with an RCBS hand primer.
Recently in short order I bought a Lee Classic Turret press. I've used the primer system a couple of times but don't really care for it.
I've bought a Lee XR hand primer and now use it for most of my pistol ammo.
I also...
I use the Lee case trimmers with an electric drill. Rifle cases have to have the lube wiped off anyway so after I trim to length I spin them again to wipe the line off, chamfer and deburr. It is a bit tedious but only takes a few seconds per case.
Most of the time when doing rifle ammo I am...
All of my rifle loads are weighed on a beam scale. I throw charge a bit light out of the powder measure into the pan, pan onto scale, a couple of blips on the electric powder trickler button and into the case.
This system has worked fine for me.

I throw a charge a bit light with a Redding powder measure. Set it on the scale. A couple of taps on the button of the vibrating trickler and I'm close enough for what I want.
I don't need to go any faster.
Midway used to sell a battery operated trickler. I used it for years until it finally quit working. I've been using the electronic vibrating trickles lately.
They work well.
Here's one of my targets for my Ruger Hawkeye Stainless with Hornady Brass. Not enough info to be conclusive but it did do better with a hotter load in this instance.
