    As has been said by everyone above
    I started loading to duplicate a 243 ‘recipe’ that came with a new rifle
    Then I bought a Lee whackamole for the 303…..
    Now I’m loading 7-8 different calibres for myself and my son
    Lee single stage press, Lee hand press and about 6 different Lyman 310 sets
    Yes, it’s cheaper, yes you shoot a lot more ( or at least I do )
    Besides, its relaxing, in a precise sort of way.
    Beware, it can become addictive.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Do many folk use the Lyman 310 tool? I am slowly putting some sets together - always looking for individual dies, tongs handles or full sets. Also havecsurplus bits to swap or trade etc. PM me if you have/want something
    I know a lot but it seems less every day...
