    It's way too easy to just call Dillon and place phone order or order online. They are fast on processing and delivery. Could wind up costing less than the gas to drive somewhere and back

    I kinda doubt anyone is selling Dillon parts for less than Dillon does either.

    A 3 die set is always a good idea instead of using the seating die to do the crimp.

    If you use a single stage press system, just order extra lock rings for each die at the same time. This allows you to use "jam nut" mode to hold the bottom lock ring in the correct place so you can change dies on a single stage press without losing the settings for the dies each time :-)

      Make sure your friend is there helping, any smart relaoder knows not to load for other people, that is unless they are there helping process the brass.

        He is eager to help. It has mostly been a scavanger hunt. I want to get the first tester batches made up. Once we have eveything calculated, I will loan him my gear.

        Plus, he help me out in other ways.

            Keep the Lee dies, buy a Redding small base body die to supplement them.
