dabeaven Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Hello to all old timers and new users, of which I suspect I am the newest. I have been reloading for some time but not a lot as work limited my free time. Work is no longer an issue since I have recently retired. I have read several post in multiple forums and look forward to meeting members and getting to know others who share my interest. Looking forward I am sure this group will be helpful to me as I reacquaint myself with reloading. I began with a Rock Chucker 30 plus years ago and upgraded to an RL 550B about four years ago. It probably has less than 1,000 rounds through it, all 45 ACP. Greetings everyone! Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyOne Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Welcome to the forums! The 550 is an excellent machine, probably loaded upwards of 30,000 on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
