I’m considering a small setup for producing match grade 5.56 and maybe 6.5 Grendel, might want to branch out into some “m193 at home” or 124gr training 9mm type recipies if I do end up doing volume. Currently looking at a Lee 6-station progressive, sizing with an RCBS X-die and some kind of minimal trim/ream setup for military brass, or I might just keep it simple with a single stage like a Lee App and swage on the press. Can’t find any trim-on-press or swage-on-press that isn’t crazy expensive unfortutately. I’d love to hear about some of your setups and if my use case would be better served by either option.

    It’s something I’m interested but don’t really know anything about. A friendly old guy at the range gave me some loads that I have written down somewhere. Will you use a book for load recipes?

      Oh yeah, just really basic Hodgedon recipies, I’m trying to save money and make something simple that works, or have an affordable way into expensive calibers. None of Bubba’s Pissin Hot Handloads for me!
