Hey ya'll, I just picked an RCBS setup from a buddy of mine.  I'm not sure which model it is by name, other than Reloader's Special Combo, which is what the box is labeled.  The P/N on the box is 18278.  It came with an RCBS 5-0-5 scale, a Powder trickler, a set of Lee powder scoops, a case lube pad, 2 primer feeders for the press, 3 sets of dies (.44 Mag, 9mm, and 7.62x39), Speer Reloading Manual (#10), and some primed 9mm brass as well as FMJ and HP 9mm bullets.  All for the princely sum of $60.  Not too bad, I'm reckoning.

I will be looking for a tumbler soon, as well as a .357 Mag/.38 Sp. die set, since I do take the Ruger hunting during firearm season.  If anyone needs/wants a .44 Mag die set and has something to trade, let me know.  I am kinda lucky in that I have two friends nearby that reload that can help as well, in case I get stuck!

That is all.  Back to your regularly scheduled programming.
I'd rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6.

Thanks!  I'm looking forward to it.  Always wanted to try my hand "rolling my own", and now I can.
