Agreed US auto didnt have a 50 BMG from what i saw i was a little disappointed but the gun club did but they dont allow it to be shot in the range... which made me sad in the pants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
War Posted September 10, 2011 Author Share Posted September 10, 2011 They didnt allow me to video in the warehouse area since Dillon Aero is fenced off right when you get in there, they are apparently really picky about that. cool thing is Matt(pretty sure thats his name) working at the counter is from where im from lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njl Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Am I the only thinking that's an awfully big/expensive/complex kit for someone "thinking about getting into reloading"? There's a lot of stuff in that list you don't need to get started, and unless you need to turn out thousands of rounds per week or month, or just have way more $ than time (not likely as you say you're saving up for it), I'd start out smaller, i.e. skipping the bullet feeder, primer fillers, etc. and just get the Eliminator scale (you'll end up buying one later anyway).
