My uncle called this morning from a yard sale and he got me a all rcbs stuff rock chucker press scale powder measurer lube kit he said everything I need except dies for 100 bucks all in llike new condition most in original packaging with papers.
So I cant wait to get started I plan to load for the following
204 ruger
25.06
270wsm
7mm mag
7mm08
300 hh
plus what ever new gun I decide to buy tomarrow either a 264 win mag or 257 wby
I think I will get my feet wet with the 204 sice components are less money and I have more brass available. I have reloaded shotshells for years but that is a whole other animal I know.

My uncle is pretty deep into reloading so I doubt he will not hook me up with exactly what I need I know he has more than enough stuff to spare.

I picked up my stuff todayhave not had much chance to go through it thouroughly yet but I know I need a powder reservoirthe one on the measurere has powder stuck to it I think I should just replace it.
I got the rock chucker press lube kit powder measurere scale de bur tool for 100 bones I think its fair.
Picked up some dies and a few misc items and a hand primertoday to help me get going
Where do you suggest I look for a powder reservoir rcbs? I tried my usual suspects but maybe I need some new ones

I would probably just give it a good cleaning. Its up to you though. Good luck on your loads. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
