Finally getting around to introduce myself.   I live in northwest Vermont and been handloading for 40 plus years.  My first handloading was with a lee loader in 308 winchester.  I was using a 150 speer spitzer and reloader 7 .    I don't know if they were accurate or not they went off  and at 12 years old that was what was important.    From there I moved on to a Lyman turret and large bore handguns of the day 44 mag 357 mag .
