Chapo Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 I have one in 45 Colt and I gotta say as rudimentary as they are, they are great little thangs. I produced great reliable ammo with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 Likewise I have one in .45 Colt. Works well enough although hammering primers in is always fun, and mega tedious for any quantity of ammo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJH Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 That's the only thing I ever blew a primer while reloading in. We were trying to reload 762x54 and had a couple of them blow primers. So we decided we would just buy some dies for that gun and skip the excitement I do still own one for a 12 gauge though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapo Posted September 12, 2022 Author Share Posted September 12, 2022 Yeah. Lol. Every time I hit the die to insert the primer, I puckered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farmer Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 The Lee hand priming tool added to that combo removes much of the pucker factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RePete Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I still have the .308 and .223 loaders along with the .308 and .223 priming tools. Both have loaded 100's of rounds years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tunachaser Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Started with one in 30-06 and IMR something or other powder back in the 70's....budget was tight. Those were the days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those were the days! You reminded me of a friend that would sit out in the wheat truck during harvest and load his 30-06 shells for hunting season. Combines were slow back then so he had more time to load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
