Single stage press

Very nice set-up.

Mine's a little more basic. I don't exactly "crank 'em out" but when I get a rhythm going I can whack up a couple of boxes of .30-06 pretty fast.
Nice thing is on good days in the spring and fall, I can put the whole works in a milk carton and bring it out to do on the tailgate of my truck.



I see that in both cases, Folgers eases the job along.

Gets the job done, either way, which is the whole idea

Wonder what guys stored stuff in before there were coffee cans

I use a Lee turret press with the 4 hole plate. I put in a carbide sizer and a case mouth bell die beside each other. so I have two of each dies in the turret. That way I can size and bell a case mouth with two pulls and then be lined up with a sizer for two more pulls on a new piece of brass. I tumble my brass and then use a Lee hand primer tool to prime the brass. Unfortunately, I have to load each piece of brass with a bullet (after putting in powder) one at a time. I also put on a taper crimp on a separate press. But I get some really nice bullets that way. It's really somewhat theraputic. kwg

Sounds like knitting, just not as portable.
