I have been pretty dang disgusted lately trying to find ammo and when I do it seems they are raping us shooters with astronomical prices. So I am thinking about starting to reload my own ammo.
I am a light shooter and do not shoot near the rounds most of you shoot. On a good month I would probably shoot 500 rounds. It isn't very much but it add's up when your shooting 380 ammo. ( The gunshop wanted $ 40 for a box of 50 - cheap range ammo ).
The help I need is with the re-loader. I am looking hard at the Lee Progressive Pro 1,000 which is selling for $ 150 new on several web sites.
Before I pull the trigger and buy this I thought I better seek some input from all of you. I would love the Dillon but its out of my price range at the moment. So will the Lee work well for me ? Is it a finicky re-loader or easy to use ?
I have watched videos of it and it seems pretty straight forward but I was concerned about its dependability. I have read that some re-loaders are real touchy and since I am a newbie I really do not want to get into any major headaches.
I will be changing back and forth between 9mm and 380 ammo.
Will the Lee 1000 be a good re-loader for a guy who is just getting started ?
Thanks everyone,
Chris
