Just ordered my first reloader

[socalbowhunter]

I just ordered a brand new RCBS 9357 Rock Chucker Supreme Master Reloading Kit online for $300.00. RCBS has a $50 mail in rebate on it so essentially it will be $250.00.
I'm so stoked to start reloading.
I'm sure I'll have lots of questions once I get it, in about a week.

Congrats. I got the same kit recently. Prepare to spend more for precision reloading and/or to make your life easier. What calibers will you be reloading?

You'll be happy to know you will get your rebate in less than 30 days. Got mine in 3 weeks.

I have dies for 9mm, .38spl, and .222. I am going to start out doing 38's because I have tons of brass. I also have thousands of triple deuce.
I eventually want to get into .223/5.56, .45 and then some of my wildcat rifle calibers.

Congratulations.

Please don't be shy and ask your questions as needed.

You'll be amazed about the wealth of knowledge and "tricks of the trade" in our community.


PS. Warning....Start saving for your new hobby, it is soooo addictive, heck, sometimes I do believe it is worse than crack ( in a good sense of course).

I figure reloading is going to do 3 things. #1 I can produce loads exactly how I need them for any given situation. #2 I can actually save money on ammo. #3 It will be therapy after a long crappy day.

#4 And you'll have ammo on a rainy day when suppliers are all out for some reason.

Ahhh, very good point.

The thing that makes the kit you bought such a good decision is the quality of all the components in the kit. Everything will likely last a lifetime. Great decision.

When I read that you had just ordered you first reloader, I was curious who sells reloaders? Do you get the meet and talk to them first?

Sorry. Well, not really...

[socalbowhunter]

I got it brand new off of ebay. Here is the ebay page.

HAHA I get it, it would be nice to have someone do all my .223 for me

[socalbowhunter]

Oh, duh, now I get it.
Once I get good, I'll be your personal reloader.

No kids and I plan on putting my wife to work reloading. She puts a lot of rounds down range so I figure she needs to do her part.
