Do you reload? 30-30 is pretty expensive
No I don't
But I have a friend that does so I might pay him to do it
Basically it would just cover the cost + a small bit
lol
Start reloading.
3030 is easy to do
Get an XL650 so you can grow into it a bit with 5 stages
Don't go for the cheapo hornady progressives
I think they're pretty shit.
I'm probably going to get into reloading when i buy a SAA repro, .45 LC isn't cheap
.45LC is easier
you can get by without even individually inspecting brass headspace on straight walled rimmed cartridges
(That are low pressure)
Higher pressure shit I would not want to just size, check length and pound rounds out on
Highly wouldn’t recommend a progressive for a beginner. Did it myself and regretted instantly.
What progressive did you use?
you can single load with a progressive to start off with.
I only keep a single stage around because I don't have a progressive that can do 338 lap 😛
A lee turret
terrible.
The only lee shit I use are their crimp dies
oh and deprimer
I have one of their single stages, it is pure chinesium
Its got the distance to do 338 lap but it's too bendy because of the cast architecture
The turret is pretty solid if it’s pot metal then it’s the sturdiest pot metal I’ve ever handled
My main issues is progressives in general are to fiddley to work with for someone new
Took 4 hours to crank out 200 rounds and luckily none blew up
You know I have been in TX for over 2 years and still don't have a revolver or a lever action
For shame
Uberti black powder revolvers are nice and cheap plus they’re fun to tinker with and icing on the cake dirt cheap to shoot
My local shop is selling a .500 S&W and I'm tempted
I wouldn't after firing one round of .500 S&W most people either never shoot it again or return the revolver.
Also for the price you could buy a nice .44 magnum or .357 magnum plus have money left over to buy plenty of ammo or another gun as well.
Personally I think it's more a coffee table gun than anything else.
after shooting a few rounds of .454 Casull no thanks
Yeah i remember watching an older iv8888 video and they said a lot of people would sell theirs or return the range rental after firing a few shots
Not even using the whole cylinder lol
How many people bought a S&W .44 Mag after watching Dirty Harry, fired one shot and never shot it again?
