I've wanted to reload for a few years now. A friend taught me on his single stage lee, but i still have always wanted my own stuff.

Everything has shipped.

I got the lee classic turret kit from cabelas
a pound of h335 and some vmax 223 55gr to try.
1000 cci 450 primers.
Hornady dies, simply because i like the bullet seating die.
Case lube
Lee case prep stuff for now. As far as length primer pocket and so forth.
Hornady small reamer for mil crimp removal for all my cheap pmc brass
Fa tubler and some corn media and polish
A set of calipers strictly for the reloading bench.(I'll keep my automotive things separate)
I went with the # 4 lee shell holder even though i was thinking about using the hornady. The hornady looks to be a better part, but i did not know if it would work since ill start with priming on the press.
The new edition of the hornady reloading book.

The only thing left that i want is a digital scale. I want to try one of the jennings mack 100.

I think he may need just a little more than 1lb of powder dryflash3.

I'm waiting on UPS to drop off my new shotgun at the local shop, but we have a bit of ice today...

Tracking says "out for delivery" though...

You'll be happy with the Lee Turrent. I am, although I only do a couple hundred of .223 a month. As well as some 40, 9mm, .45 and some .38 occasionally. Not too bad a press. I ve done a few thousand  or so on it.

I Would have been fine with a single imho.  On the other hand it will be nice to rack out the handgun ammo.

I wont reload much. .223, .45, and .243.

For me its all about building a better round for my rifles and handguns.

THIS.

I recently stepped up to a Hornady LnL AP, but ran a Lee Turret for years.  Great press and I got a lot of use out of it.  I actually still use it for all of my de-capping, sizing, and 45/70 and .30 Carbine loading.

I had no problem loading 100 rounds a night with it.
