    Any plans for the next one? A continuation of what we had except mostly just loading & troubleshooting. Maybe a precision rifle or progressive reloading workshop as mentioned earlier?

      Any word on a class happening in or near the San Fernando Valley area. I'm very interested in learning to reload. I just picked up a book ABC's of reloading and would love to attend a class before making purchases of equipment. Thanks!

          Any chance of another beginner's class? I'm about 15min from the Lake Matthews location.

          I'm in the process of collecting equipment and components necessary to reload for .45acp, .223, and .308.

          Struggling to build my inventory on a shoestring budget, but things are coming together thanks to forum marketplace deals.

                    Seems like I missed both workshops and I live very near this area.

                    Did an I.E. Reloaders Club ever get off the ground?

                    When is the next planned workshop/reload party?

                    Please add me to the list for a PM... thanks!

                      Got to watch the hand loading of primers more carefully though, one went in upside down
                      Other than that, all is good.
                      Thanks for the lesson.

                      Knock it out.

                      Hey get this, I SOMEHOW loaded up a 300MP 44 mag load and the primer either backed out on its own or I did not seat it enough.

                      THE PRIMER WAS STICKING OUT OF THE BACK OF THE SHELL ABOUT A MM or SO. THE SHELL DID NOT STAND ON ITS OWN, IT WOULD FALL OVER.

                      Know what I did? I loaded it in the deagle, let the bolt go and no slamfire, so I SHOT it. The result was a shot that worked well AND the primer was seated in the shell after it ejected...

                      I can't believe how sloppy some of my earlier rounds were. I would never let that get off the press by my standards today, but it was weird.

                        I had one go in sideways a week or so ago. I didn't notice it doing that on the way up but did explain why it was so hard to seat

                          I just destroyed 3 primers the other night and I was only priming .45 acp brass on the press. Dunno how it happened but it seemed to cave them in sideways, but this was on a Lee turret with the safety prime and all that. IMPOSSIBLE...

                            Just found this forum, and just ordered my first press. I live in the IE (Temecula) and would love to know more about this club.
