Not bad as long as you can refurbish it properly

2019-01-18 20:09:22 UTC  

Oh wow nice

2019-01-18 20:09:29 UTC  

How much ammo total?

2019-01-18 20:09:54 UTC  

43 bullets

2019-01-18 20:10:02 UTC  

Oh so 2 boxes

2019-01-18 20:10:08 UTC  

Yup that's what I meant

2019-01-18 20:10:08 UTC  

A case is different lol

2019-01-18 20:10:37 UTC  

Yeah I'll get a case of ammo eventually

2019-01-18 20:10:49 UTC  

What round is it chambered in

2019-01-18 20:11:14 UTC  

.30-30

2019-01-18 20:12:27 UTC  

Do you reload? 30-30 is pretty expensive

2019-01-18 20:12:44 UTC  

No I don't

2019-01-18 20:12:53 UTC  

But I have a friend that does so I might pay him to do it

2019-01-18 20:13:08 UTC  

Basically it would just cover the cost + a small bit

2019-01-18 20:26:45 UTC  

lol

2019-01-18 20:26:49 UTC  

Start reloading.

2019-01-18 20:26:57 UTC  

3030 is easy to do

2019-01-18 20:27:20 UTC  

Get an XL650 so you can grow into it a bit with 5 stages

2019-01-18 20:27:35 UTC  

Don't go for the cheapo hornady progressives

2019-01-18 20:27:42 UTC  

I think they're pretty shit.

2019-01-18 20:28:12 UTC  

I'm probably going to get into reloading when i buy a SAA repro, .45 LC isn't cheap

2019-01-18 20:28:28 UTC  

.45LC is easier

2019-01-18 20:29:15 UTC  

you can get by without even individually inspecting brass headspace on straight walled rimmed cartridges

2019-01-18 20:29:38 UTC  

(That are low pressure)

2019-01-18 20:30:08 UTC  

Higher pressure shit I would not want to just size, check length and pound rounds out on

2019-01-18 20:34:25 UTC  

Highly wouldn’t recommend a progressive for a beginner. Did it myself and regretted instantly.

2019-01-18 20:35:35 UTC  

What progressive did you use?

2019-01-18 20:35:45 UTC  

you can single load with a progressive to start off with.

2019-01-18 20:36:34 UTC  

I only keep a single stage around because I don't have a progressive that can do 338 lap 😛

2019-01-18 20:37:36 UTC  

A lee turret

2019-01-18 20:37:47 UTC  

Reloading .30-06

2019-01-18 20:44:01 UTC  

terrible.

2019-01-18 20:44:23 UTC  

The only lee shit I use are their crimp dies

2019-01-18 20:44:30 UTC  

oh and deprimer

2019-01-18 20:44:53 UTC  

I have one of their single stages, it is pure chinesium

2019-01-18 20:45:29 UTC  

Its got the distance to do 338 lap but it's too bendy because of the cast architecture

2019-01-18 20:51:09 UTC  

The turret is pretty solid if it’s pot metal then it’s the sturdiest pot metal I’ve ever handled

2019-01-18 20:52:02 UTC  

My main issues is progressives in general are to fiddley to work with for someone new

2019-01-18 20:52:40 UTC  

Took 4 hours to crank out 200 rounds and luckily none blew up

2019-01-18 21:28:48 UTC  

You know I have been in TX for over 2 years and still don't have a revolver or a lever action

2019-01-18 22:33:48 UTC  

For shame
