No, it can be dangerous when you shoot them if you reload them wrong. But not when you're actually doing it unless you're just being stupid and have an open flame or pounding on them for some reason.

Got a couple more on order from Midway. Ive really enjoyed reading all the stuff in these books, its amazing how much stuff and combos are out there.

Also got 15K of large pistol, rifle and rifle mag primers coming once Midway fixes the double hazmat charge since Im ordering a couple pounds of various other powders. Wont be much longer til I get all the components I need then I can focus on getting the actual reloading equipment. Im starting to get excited about developing some loads. Also got an unlimited pas to my local gun range thats about 30 minutes away

The first rounds Im going to work on are 500S&W mag, 223, 270, 300WSM, 300BO and 45ACP.

It's not that I really need this much, but the discount for buying in bulk is substantial and I've also found good deals on them. I've still got more coming.

I highly recommend a Dillon RL550. I got started with a Lee single stage,still use it. Then I got the dillon and fell in love.

I plan on getting a dillon around tax return time, buying all these components has severely pushed back buying the actually equipment. But atleadt once I get it ill have plenty of goodies to mess with.

Yep, looking at the supreme kit and this scale
RCBS ChargeMaster 1500 Powder Scale Dispenser Combo 110 Volt
To start off with. Using a balance to weigh out charges just doesn't sound like fun to me.


FYI for people wanting to order powder and primer at the same time, midway charges two hazmat fees because they don't have the powder in house. I ordered my primers and powder from grafs which was a couple bucks cheaper and only one hazmat fee.
