i reload 40 s&w 45 acp 270 30-06 223 , i am using a lyman single stage turret head. i have had it for 3-4 years. started cause the ammo for my 30-06 was 45-50 dollars a box. i make em for around 1 dollar each and they are more accurate. i love reloading it just takes so much time. its cheaper and more accurate. i use to load for my t/c in 45-70 govt. , a 400 gr hollow point will blow a hole in almost anything. going to my my dies for 44 rem mag . got a marlin lever action on trade for putting a head gasket on a hyundai elantra. beautiful gun. couple of things i would advise a clean work table with lots of space only keep one powder out at a time. work up loads slowly, watch your brass it talks to you. i found i can get three to four more firings on my 270 my backing off my powder charge by just a little . cost me average of 100 fps muzzle velocity and didnt notice any difference on paper.
