I have been a handloader on and off for about 12 years starting with 44-40 Winchester and then .45ACP. I recently got restarted by my son who needed cheaper ammo for his .243 win, this inspired me to then reload for my .308 win and also for the .303 British I have had for a long time(another subject). I now load .223 rem, .243 win, .303 British, .308 win and 44-40. I no longer shoot pistol but I still have the dies. I use mainly Lee dies but everything else is pretty well Lyman. Sorry to bore you but I am new to forums and am just feeling my way along, thanks for having me.:sofa:
