Thanks for all the advice. I guess I'm stuck on what powder to use. I've read alot of good things about the Solo 1000 on these forums. One of the things I liked was that people said the powder took up a lot of space in the casing due to the consistency of it, which would make it easier to spot a double charge. Can you guys recommend a good powder for someone just starting out. This will be for 9mm and I'm not looking for supreme accuracy off the bat, just want to get my feet wet. thanks chris

I'm taking the plunge and ordering a Dillon 550 from Eno's tomorrow. I think I have a fairly good list of everything I'll need off the bat for basic reloading. I don't shoot any competitions or anything like that as of right now so my immediate needs from the press is just to produce good quality ammo and lots of it. I will only be reloading 9mm starting off. The gun I will be reloading for is a Glock 19 3rd Gen. Here is a short list of the stuff I'm going to order: Dillon 550 Press Dillon 9mm Dies Dillon Primer Tubes x 4 Dillon Case Gauge Eno's Digital Scale Eno's Digital Calipers Lymans Reloading Manual I have decided to start out with a 12oz bottle of Accurate Solo 1000 for my powder because of all the good things I've read. I've also decided on Montana Gold 124gr FMJ for my first batch. I will be using Tula Ammo small primers because that's all I could find in stock. I will be using once fired Winchester and Federal brass I've been saving. So now that all of that is out of the way, I have a couple questions: 01. I couldn't find any info on Accurate's website about a load recipe for Solo 1000 with 9mm. They don't even list it under 9mm. How do I know how much powder to start with? 02. Does the 550 come with mounting hardware? Thanks, Chris

Hello all, I found this site a few months ago and have found it to have an invaluable amount of information. I'm interested in shooting local competitions and will be reloading soon. Looking forward to getting to know you guys! Anyone located around Southern Indiana? -Chris
