when i first started home loading back in 2004 i bought a Lee Anniversary kit and dies, good kit to get started with and won't break the bank..

have upgraded bits and pieces over the years as and when needed.

if funds aren't a worry then go for the RCBS rock chucker kit

cheers jock

Like many, I’ve gradually upgraded my kit over the years, just looked and I’ve got a Lyman D7 scale, an RCBS trickler and a Lee deluxe 3 die set upstairs David, could probably rustle up a 100 or so once fired cases... probably Federals.

There’s one of the vibrating walnut media type of case cleaners up there too.... but not essential to get you going.... old phosphor bronze bore brushes will clean the inside of the necks and a green scourer pad the outside. For trimming .243’s I just use one of the Lee lock stud case trimmers.... whilst the case is in the holder in the combo drill, it’s a case of wire brush inside the necks, insert the trimmer, if it cuts, chamfer inside and out, green pad the outside. Ready for sizing after doing the primer pockets.

You can’t be too far from me once all this shit is over

Cheers

Hi, I don't have anything yet as I have never bothered to reload any, as always had factory rounds. Thanks

Thanks mate, lets get this virus over you are not to far for me to go. David

When I started, I bought a kit. All I had to do was add dies, you end up adding more over time. I got the rock chucker kit but I got it cheap, the gun shop hadn’t up dated their prices for a year or two but honoured the price. 1967spud does secondhand gear, might be worth looking on there
