This is awesome! I woke up this morning and thought to myself, "We need more mindless laws and regulations which annoy the hell out of people who are already trying to obey 300,000 or so laws and regulations!" The left has come through yet again!
The only steps I do with the TV on are sizing/depriming and flaring straight walled cases. Any steps that could involve BOOM! or precision don't involve a TV...
I like this company. I use Lee dies and whatnot, and they seem to have more in stock than Midway at the moment. Just a tad cheaper as well... If I remember correctly, they don't immediately email an invoice. That is my only minor complaint.
I am relatively new to reloading as well. I went with two (2) Lee Classic Breech Lock Single Stage Presses mounted side by side. I replaced the handles with Inline Fabrication Ergo Roller Handles. Those handles are nice! I load pretty much what you do, plus .380, and soon .308. I've...
I had the same problem with the Lee Powder throw. As much as .3 grains off with Unique. I didn't want to buy and try a bunch of powder throws, so I bit the bullet (a pun!) and bought http://www.midwayusa.com/product/226117/redding-competition-10x-pistol-and-small-rifle-powder-measure.
I'd rather fill my cart with overpriced P-Mags at CTD than buy ANYTHING made or sold in the State of Illinois. Their laws are just too oppressive, and I respectfully decline to support them.
The bench is another expense. I would suggest buying something like a Black and Decker Workmate 225 and clamp on a 2x8 as the top. So even if you decide reloading isn't your your thing, you are only stuck with a 2x8, a few clamps, and something unbelievably handy to have around the house anyway.
I logged on for the sole purpose of posting this, Slapstick. They have been in stock for over 3 hours now. wth? Now if I could get the Berrys to stock about 12,000 9mm and .380s, I'd be good to go for a day or two... :)
For anyone that hasn't used Fiocchi primers before: From my...

It is small, and definitely decent enough to put an aluminum press on. I'm going to try and mount a heavy cast iron Lee Press on one and see what happens...
