www.powdervalley.com, www.Grafs.com When doing your research make sure that the company your buying from is the one shipping to you, or you could pay 2x hazmat fees.
Call Brain Enos www.brainenos.com better pricing that Dillon and you get to speak to Brain.

Here is a suggestions. Draft a letter that you can send to prospective suppliers. Something a long the lines of...

To whom it may concern. My name is so and so. I am looking for a supplier to fulfill an order of reloading equipment as well as supplies sufficient enough for 20,000 cartridges (don't abbreviate, let them see the full number). I would like to if at all possible go through a single supplier. Please find below a list of components I require. Will your store offer a bulk discount on a purchase such as this?

Use your own words if you want but something to that nature. Good luck. Also, do not forget to mention the an approximate timeline for your need. ie, I am ready to make this purchase within 1 week. I look forward to a reply from you at your earliest convenience. Sincerely ...

20k is nothing. Xtreme bullets doesnt give you a break until 25k. I asked Sinclair if they would wave the hazmat on my 20k primer order and the woman on the phone chuckled. PVI could care less about my 48lb powder order.

My point is just find the best price which may be with different places and order.

To the OP: Must be nice you can take 2 months off of work and drop 5k on ammo. What's your total budget? Just curious.

On a XL650 the powder check is overkill since the press auto-indexes. Just make complete strokes.

My budget for shooting alone is 5k.
It has not been easy to save up to do this, and my girlfriend(and preaty much all my friends) thinks I'm creazy. But it's one of those things where I really want to know what I can achive. I hope I can document it some how maybe a blog...
I was thinking I could shoot the idpa classifier, and the beginning of the program and then shoot it agein in two months.
That way I could track my improvement.

Well I put my order with Brian
All my gear should be here in a week or so.
The next step is to start ordering all the components.
Thanks for the help fellows!!

Hey guys,
there's actually one main thing I've over looked while planning this thing out...
and that is finding a good value chrono to test my bullets.
any ideas on a good cheap (at least somewhat cheap) chrono?

p.s
i got my powder and primers coming from powder valley thanks for the heads up on that

Did you already place your order with powder valley? I need an 8 lb tub of Solo 1000.
