    Orange County Reloading help?

    I live in HB, looking for anyone within a reasonable driving range that could help me out. I have long been interested in reloading pistol and rifle. No, I don't shoot a lot...but I imagine that might change if I started making my own. Also with the upcoming changes in the laws about ammo purchases....I am thinking if I'm ever gonna do it...it might as well be this year.

    I am just looking for someone to allow me to observe, help and answer questions during a reloading session, on a progressive maching...I've looked at the Dillon 550/650's and would probably lean towards one of those if I purchase...It just seems a little intimidating, and being a "hands on" kinda guy...I'm sure if I could just watch and do it...it would all seem much simpler.
    I'd be available most weeknights or afternoons....hell, I'll bring the pizza!

    Cheers

    I'm a bit far away but, the drive is doable. I've got a 550, a 650 and several other presses too. Let me know if you want to come out just past Santa Clarita.

        I live in HB and will be loading up some .45 rounds this weekend on my 650. Send me a PM and can get together.

        If you want to load your own, I have a single stage press you can use while I supervise. Just bring you own components and we are good to go.

          Mycrstuff, good tip, I actually did go there....great shop, great guys...more or a demo than a class per se, I went there hoping I would leave fired up...but I still think I need a little one on one and time to ask stupid questions...

          Mac Attack, I'll pm you shortly

          Thanks guys -

            Lucked out today Fowler Gun Room had a class on how to reload. I bought my Dillion 550B from them. I have not reloaded for a few years sense I moved to LA but wanted to brush up on the powder scale. I will keep checking back with fowlers to see if they have any more classes.

              If you go to Field Time and ask for Bob for a demo I bet he would be willing to run through it with you. They do reloading classes one a month with the most recent one being last weekend.

                I am also available most any day. I am off work for a few weeks and plan on doing a bit of reloading. Oh Garden Grove.

                    I have a 92. I would post use it as my avitar, but then everyone who reads these threads would recognize me where ever I went. LOL
