Give me a good reason........

It's basically what I bought in 1974, and still use today. It'll be a functioning family heirloom someday.

Yeah I saw that but it won't qualify for the $50 . That is, unless I only have to spend $300 total on different pieces. Then it would be better.

YF,
from what I understand reading the rebate form, it is 50 bux off a maximum of 300, send in original invoice as well as barcodes off the boxes/packaging.. whether it is 300 .01 or more, max is 50 rebate..but it has to be in rcbs product..

I found it easier to get all at once,,since I was close..but that is just me

you can always use shellholders unless you are getting a lee die set, as they come with them, or something to bell case mouths on pistol brass, or a crimp remover..or a brush.. or powder stand..anything rcbs makes..not just big ticket items..

YF, your kit is missing some vital pieces to turn out precision rifle ammo. You realize that, right?

Like:

Case trimmer
Vernier caliper (better would be a caliper AND a "bullet comparator")
Concentricity gauge (optional but just barely in my opinion)
Tumbler & media & separator
Case lube
Headspace gauge
Crimp remover (if you ever want to use NATO brass)
and maybe a few other incidentals . . . .

I'm sure it has to do with your excessive attention to detail....

That was horrific. I think it sends the message home very well. #1 Pay attention.

Hell yeah I saw that. The graphic image doesn't bother me much but I sure will make mistakes multi-tasking while reloading.

My purpose for reloading is: 1. Accuracy for .308 long range shooting; 2. Find a new hobby to kill time.

Since I'd be busy for a while I think I'll wait till I finish all bob's reloads and all my FGMM SMK 308 in stock, which won't happen anytime soon.

This is . . . was, no sissy gun.
