Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

Location: On the couch a lot now that I'm retired

Got my S&W model 15 2" today, and man am I happy with it!!! Virtually new! Since I had already called in * koff, koff* sick and I was out of 38s, I knocked the dust ( literally!) off my Dillon SQD-B & set it up for 38 Spl.

There were 44-40 dies in it, so I looked at a box of 44-40 loads... 2002! seven years since I used the Dillon! But I got-r-done. The hard part was finding everything.

Things fell into place pretty quickly - got the powder measure set for 4.3 grains/Unique & found a full 500 box of cast 158 gr SWCs. Set the seater & crimp & away I went. Slowly. Add a case - add a bullet - pull the handle. Plop. Another just right round.

My brass is kinda old, though... found some odd stuff as I looked each one over before adding to the machine. Super Vel - Speer - Peters - 3D - Western -military from the 60s - I bet I get a few split necks tomorrow!

The Dillon was money well-spent! :bigrin:
