I finally broke down!

Well I could not resist the temptation of getting the press I always wanted!

I went to Cabela's tonight to buy some plastic ammo cases and a universal de-capping die and ended up buying a Hornady Lock-N-Load AP as well!

They had three different prices posted $439.99, $399.99 and $359.99? I asked what was the deal with the prices and they said that Hornady is increasing their prices from $399.99 to $439.99 but, because the old (Sale was over a few days ago) sale price I would get it for that price.

I put it on Layaway so it won't kill my budget but I will have it by Christmas at the latest!

I will have 3 presses now! No I am not addicted to reloading at all! I could give it up tomorrow if you asked me nice!

Damned ammo boxes got me too! Bought the RCBS 1500 powder measure/scale on a similar trip. Wasn't an unplanned purchase but it was on sale.
I guess you have a few weeks to re-arrange your loading bench. Have fun!

How about that! Darn plastic ammo boxes are the down fall to our bank accounts!

I can't wait to get my hands on the new press! I wish that the shell plates did not cost soo much though! :barf:
