    I followed a similar path. I use Bayou 147gr with 3.7gr CFE, cci #500, 1.14 OAL. Provides a relatively soft recoil with good accuracy. This recipe was suggested by a fellow shooter using the same bullet. I haven't chrono'd this so I can't comment on PF for this load. I've range compared it with 3.2gr of Tite Group and I couldn't detect a difference.  

    is the fired brass just as dirty or more clean with CFE over Titegroup?

  2. Hello,

    I have reloaded for years using a Lee Turret press. A good friend several years ago bought a 550B, never used it and sold it to me. I am kinda new at this so bear with me. I reload(in order of importance) 9mm, 40S&W, 45ACP and .223. I would like to keep the Lee dies I have for all the aftermentioned calibers. Here is what I have

    (1) Dillon550B press with the powder measure, bar, and 45acp dies-came from the factory with it

    (1) deluxe quick change kit-powder measure, stand, powder bar

    (1) conversion kit in 38spl(I will sell as I dont reload 38spl)

    (1) aluminum roller handle

    (1) spare parts kit

    (1) flip tray

    (1) cover for press

    (1) 4 large primer pickup tubes

    (1) set of redding 38spl dies-going to sell

    (1) set of dillon 44mag dies-going to sell

    (1) dillon beam scale

    (1) my RCBS 505 powder scale-going to sell

    (1) Hornady powder scale-going to sell

    I am going to sell the dillon 45acp, 44mag, and 38 spl redding dies, also going to sell the RCBS scale and Hornady scale. I know I am going to have to buy a 9mm conversion kit and small primer tubes but what else would you all recommend to get to where I can reload the above calibers?

    Any precautions to using the Lee dies?

    Do I need a Dillon powder die since I am using Lee dies?

    I am looking for the most affordable way to do this. I might buy another quick change kit for my 40S&W.

    Lastly, where do you all get your accessories besides dillon?

    Thanks from a newbie,

    John
