RELOADERS What do you reload?

[rodell]

I currently load the following:

.243 Win
7mm-08
.30-06
.308 (Hunting, not match)

.44 Spl/Mag
.38 spl / .357 mag

12 gauge shotshell (competition load)

I'm about to start 257 Weatherby.

I've made the decision not to load .45ACP or .223 - I just had to stop somewhere.

Past loading: 300 savage, various fireballs, .30-30, .222, 20 gauge, .257 Bob, and many more ...

Bob

 

[Huntbear]

.44 Spl. and mag
.45 ACP
.38 Spl.

.257 Ackley Improved
7mm-08
.300 Sav.
.308
.300 WSM
.338 WM

I think that is all of them.

Not at all hard to do...just follow the simple rules. RCBS Rock Chucker, Dillon 550, RCBS Partner, Herters C arm, MEC 600 Jr,,,,,,,,,You can get set up for around $160 with some good used equipment......it is well worth it all around

If you're inclined, you can load a family of cartridges, like the .45ACP, .30-06, .308, .243, 7mm-08, 8mm Mauser, and so on. They all use the same shell holder, and the rifle cartridges in the group can generally use the same powder, even if the amounts are different. My eye tends to be attracted to old warhorses, and there are many similarities to take advantage of.

I do all my reloading using the Lee Classic reloading kits. 30.06, 6.5x55, and 7.62x54R.

 

[roguebowhunter]

findin that 762x54r is pretty difficult .. has a die set but not much brass .. Don

 

[TMan1911]

I think I might have some brass, need to chk if 7.62x39 or... I though the ram on Turret classic was not as strong and tough as RCBS so split my work load into two separate station progresisve for handgun and Chucker for rifle hassle but OK
