I started with a Lee Breach press (Nut cracker) 35 years ago and have several presses and a great deal of other equipment now. Pistols for me are 9 mil and 45 ACP, I have a .380 Colt Pony but I oiled it and put it away long ago, I hate loading .380 stuff. Most of my reloading is for long guns which I have a number of those children .... I just bought 2 pounds of powder for .223 and 1 pound for my .30 carbine at 30 bucks a pound, ouch and I have been stocking up on primers at 80 bucks/1000, large pistol is the primers I seem to have difficulty locating. I know a gentleman who cast bullets, powder coats them and puts an aluminum gas check on them, he's been selling those to me at 11 cents each for pistol and the .30 carbine and 30-30 Lead mix is hardball, I have been threatening to start casting my own and he has coached me along on what I need and how to get there.
I have been getting a reasonable price of unsorted range brass from "Capitol Brass" for the pistols and "Diamond Brass" for rifles, If any of you guys have found a better place, I am always looking for good spots to get reasonable brass....
Sorry to ramble, its one of those days....
