picking up speed

[Hoss in IL]

Congratulations on the new equipment! I can't give you any "Dillon" advice, I bought a different color.

As far as the case feeder and bullet feeders go, I figure I was born with a perfectly good one at the end of my left arm I've seen the you tube videos of the case and bullet feeders and listening to the cases and bullets rattle around in the hoppers would drive me nuts, that's just me. You didn't ask but I'd spend the money for the feeders on more reloading components.

I noticed you're not in the U.S. so it may be difficult for you to get supplies/limited options and availability. I'd try to buy smaller batches of powder and bullets until I found what shot best out of my guns and then load up on the magic receipe. Maybe you've already done all of the trial loads and found that what you bought will be a great combination.

Good luck with the operation. I like reloading. Put some pictures up when you get rolling.

Take care,

Hoss

The Bullet feeder noise it did seem loud on the youtube vids, but it's not that bad in real life.
Case rattle sound yes, but you get that when you grab shells from a bin too.
The motor itself is reasonably quiet.

The only thing annoying about it , is when it keeps starting/stopping on every pull of the lever. But i simply turn off the feeder if i'm not quick enough for it.

Supplies is a problem, basically the gunstores are small, few have reloading gear and those who do, well, they are reloaders and pretty much sell what they use themselves.
No mail ordering either.

Found one in close proximity, all he had was accurate powder #7
I figured i needed to start somewhere, so it's good to start with.
Next time i'll have to drive a bit more, to get some more choice.

Reloading is addictive imo. I enjoy it.
