Again thinking about reloading......

OH-CCW · March 22, 2009, 02:24 PM

If speed doesnt matter and I would only be reloading .45acp and 9mm, would the RCBS Rock Chucker (sp) be a good set up. Also I know that its hard to come by ammo, is it also hard to get supplies to reload right now. I dont want to buy a reloading set up and then not be able to get supplies.

Thanks Matt

Yes, a Rock Chucker will do a good job of loading 9mm and 45ACP, but without knowing how many rounds you shoot per week/month/year and what your budget is, it is hard to give you a better answer.

I started out using the Lee Classic Turret Press and still use it today I really like the press.What I liked was pretty hard to mess and make mistakes, all you had to remember was to pull the handle all the way down and all the way up

But was replaced with a Dillon 550 some time ago. Now I just load the stuff I don't shoot much on it and leave the Dillon set up for .38 and .45

But right now you are right trying to find reloading components is next to impossible, been trying for the last two weeks and come up with nothing

I would recommend the Lee classic turret press if you are going to load pistol. Yes some reloading components are very hard to get right now.
