Welcome to Reloaders Anonymous. Which press?

After trying a few out I really liked the Lee Load-Master 223

So I decided to buy that until I win the Lotto then I'll buy a Dillon

A LOAD MASTER?

Cool.

Where did you get to try one out at?

I think FS had those for like $243. They are out of stock, but so far it has been 2/2 out of stock means a 1.5 week wait...

Will it come already setup so you just mount, fill and pull for lucky 7s?

A few of the guys I work with load and I went to the CalGuns LB Reloading Clinic a couple of weeks ago.

I bought mine from Titan Reloading for $243

Just got shipment confirmation - It will be here Friday

Nice choice. Smart of you to try before you buy. There are things you still need, but a very good start.

Grats on taking the first steps

Best advice anyone ever gave me when I started loading rifle ammo was to understand cartridge headspace and get the tools sooner than later to confirm your sizing dies are setup correctly in relation to your rifles chamber.

On top of that, buy quality tools when it comes to case prep as the bulk of the work when loading rifle is all case prep.

[YZINGERR]

when mounted of course!

[BruinGuy]

2000 rounds - should go quickly enough on the Load Master...once you've done the case prep!

Have fun with that...I'm 450 cases into a bag of 1000. Had to stop for a while when the blisters burst.

The rest of it is easy!

Yeah, trimming is the worst part. I'm getting mechanics gloves to save my hands, those blisters really hurt.

I'm holding off on reloading anymore rifle until i get my giraud. not worth the pain to me.

[shooting4life]

Good luck, sometimes I enjoy reloading more than shooting.

Lol. I gave up reloading rifle long ago.
I'll never load rifle again unless its for bench rest precision rounds or maybe after I retire. I just don't have the time nor patience.
