    Official RAA Thread (Reloading Addicts Anonymous)

    You know, i didnt buy into the stories of people getting addicted to reloading..... well i was wrong!

    I just spent the last 2.5 hours loading 475 rounds of nosler 77gr on my Redding T7, and the only reason Im done is because i ran out of powder

    I NEED MORE POWDER!!!!! lol

    so how many of you reloaders are in the same boat as me?

    I also didn't realize how addicting it is. I really wish I had was the ability to immediately test out new loads in the back yard I wonder what my neighbors would think

        Yeah, really.... having to drive somewhere to test out loads! I wish I had a 25 yd shooting range in an underground bunker.

            Yes, a powder buy for So. CA would be nice since the last one has been postponed.

                      Randall i see 2 650s in my future, or 1 650 and 1 1050. with the rate that me and my wife are going through my ammo.... i need to get as close to fully automated reloading as possible.

                      Randall, i was thinking a 650 and 1050 set up the way you have, 1 for prep, and 1 for loading, except the 1050 would have a bullet feeder too.

                      what do you think?

                            what do you think?
                            Start with a 650.
                            Don't get a 1050 unless you can afford ($$$ and bench space) to dedicate it to a single cartridge.
