RE: Cost effectiveness of reloading????
Tuk, we got the rcbs rockchucker supreme kit, and ordered a digital scale, a lyman tumbler and some media. We still need to get a bullet puller and some other odds and ends. And we need to order another manual or two. All four of us will be loading for .300 win mag so wesplit the cost of the dies for that one. Myself, I'll be getting dies for 7mm rem. mag, 30-06, .35 rem., and .45 acp. I'm gonna get my kids either a .260, 7mm-08, or a .308 so I'll be loading one of those as well. What I meant by myquestion was that with this huge price increase we've seen for premium ammo I was wondering if reloading has gained any savings because of it. I've shot federal premiums for years using the trophy-bonded bearclaws. The 150 grn. in my .300, the 140 grn. in my 7mm, and the 165 grn. in my '06. One of the good things about me reloading again is that federal quit carrying these loads in the 7mm and the .300.
