Hello All!

When I was about 14 I bought my first press. A RCBS Rockchucker. I was going to load my 30-06 deer slayer. Youthful high school student at the time.

When I was about 26 I made the plunge to the progressive world. Like many I found it to be a choice between red and blue (Hornady and Dillon). I had just had my second child at this time.

Many moons later I am upgrading my Hornady LNL to finally have a case feeder. I load for a lot more calibers now as well. Divorced twice, custody of my children, and a homeowner for a few years now.

I still have the Rockchucker and use it often. Just loaded up some .338WM for a Winchester Model 70 Boss I picked up in January.

Nice to meet you all and look forward to learning and passing along some info during my time here.
 
Welcome! I have two Dillon 650s and don't use them much any more. I pretty much gave up on handgun reloading and currently do not load rifle ammo in bulk.
Found a old CH press (three holes) which is suitable for resizing most anything that isn't too long (regular rifles and magnum lengths). It is just fine for small lots of test ammo for rifles, working up loads. Does a good job of reshaping cases in conversion as well. Tastes change.

Come on in and sit a spell. Pretty decent folks.
 
Welcome to the forum Horskinator! I use to live in Lyme , NH but crossed the river into the Green Mountain state a few years ago. I didn't know we were supposed to upgrade as time goes on. I still use that Lee single stage press. Maybe I need to do some shopping around.

Not too far away. I work in Springfield.
