@Armmaliterifle15 For very large stuff (338 LM), I use a RCBS RC IV single stage. For practically everything else I use a DILLON 550C progressive. If you look at my playlists, you will find one called reloading
Over 430 9mm picked up, and already cleaned. An hour on my Dillon will result in that many loaded. It's over 25 a bx here in Canada so, yea I'm ahead. The real plus is it's mostly BLAZER brass, that's NOT crimped vs the nearly 2k I've picked up in other bays. I'm retired, and get paid if I do something or not. Unless if I get they cheapest 9mm, I save money reloading ammo. And it's the stuff I want, vs whatever they got on sale.
@TommyTheMuhFuckinChooChooTrain thanks for the positive feelings. Some people do though, it seems. I'm saving 6+ a bx on 9mm, and from there it only increases. It may be only 6 a box, but it does add up, that 1 bx pays for my fuel to go to the range and back. For my 338 LM it's over 120$ for 20 rounds, and that definitely adds up!
@@PlayingWithFireOutdoors exactly! People think about instant needs instead of long term benefits and every piece of dollar you can save, do it👍🏾 i know a few rich people who think like you and that’s why they’re rich.
@PlayingWithFireOutdoors oof...it's only $13 usd for a box of 9mm here in Washington. So it's almost double the price where you're at. Like, don't get me wrong, I clean up my own brass as a matter of etiquette and save it if I ever need to reload it but I have enough of a stored supply of ammo and buy in bulk at the dips that I never really have to reload or save very much money when doing so, as it stands I have roughly 60lbs of brass for every caliber I shoot regularly and short of casting my own bullets, there's never really enough of a cost savings to warrant the investment of my time. Regardless, I'm not knocking you, if this is something you can justify for yourself and you enjoy doing it, then who the heck am I to knock you for it, just saying that for a lot of us, the few bucks a box saved isn't worth the time and investment in equipment, because let's be honest, you probably have a couple grand tied up in equipment if you're running dillion stuff....I reload myself but it's mainly for precision shooting.
A good skill to have.
Props brother!!
@VincentTaylor-ji5ds Thanks, I'm just my bit to keep the government within the boundaries.
What reloader do you use and what would you recommend to someone interested in starting to reload their ammo? Any different for rifle cartridges?

Cool, you saved less than $10 for 30mins of work...lol...but hey, at least your range is a little bit cleaner.

Saving money and loading ammo which is therapeutic? I don’t see what’s wrong with that.
