I had the option of trying both instore and having someone walk me through them. At the end of it, it was a no brainer for me. LNL!

[ Note: merged thread ] anyone else get thiers set up? I set up my KISS and then this one arrived 2 weeks later and I'm not sure I want to keep it yet...

J Hardy, shorty 9mm major. LOVE IT.

Midsouth has large pistol in stock!

check out the dawson precision site for the bullet feeder.

they are, mine should arrive this week too!

I was working on data for 185 MG JHPs and Clays. I started at 3.9 and worked up to 4.1. My ES is anywhere from 80-100, and I am wondering if that is indicative of anything My OAL ia 1.25, and crimp is .471.

I can see on occasion not getting a good enough bell with the PTEs since some of the cases may be slightly different in length- but I can't see why you didn't get any powder! Something doesn't sound right at all. You need the rotor to hit at the top ALL the time. It should get a full range of motion or darn close to it... but it has to hit the top. If it's not hitting the top- there is no way the PTE is going into the case as much as it should. The nipple should go ALL THE WAY into the case... it bells only at the shoulder of the PTE. Good luck. I had the same issue at first. You need to lower the whole set up so that the PTX runs deeper into the case. As it stands now, it sounds like the PTX is only making contact and not fully seated into the case before it triggers the powder throw.

nevermind, fixed. User error.

anyone order one from dawson's or have any feedback on it?

going to be using clays and 230 FMJ. Any advice on a starting point? thanks

check out midsouth....they were listed as in stock as of 8:20 EST. nick.out.

new to reloading, not quite sure what to do here. I thought I didnt, but a call to hornady now left me confused. thanks

Any suggestions? I stopped by one of the local shops and demo'd both a 550 and a hornady LnL, and have decided to go with the LnL and casefeeder. That said, I also purchased the Lee FCD, EGW U die, and Redding comp seat die for the .45. Tumbler is taken care of by a neighbor, as is a set of calipers. I still need a scale though, and before I get into buying and discovering I could have purchased a better alternative, I thought I'd ask here. Which scales do you suggest, and what do I need to steer clear of? Thanks!

Just wanted to introduce myself. Currently living in Savannah, Ga for the time. Active duty military, 3ID always looking to shoot although there doesn't seem to be too much organzied in these neck of the woods. I've been lurking for the past couple days, reading and learning. It's going to get expensive, I can tell already.
