I sold some toys so I can start reloading for the hobby and of course to save some loot. I responded to an ad in the paper and here is what I came away with... and for only $500...

Pictures as promised. Sorry about that. Taking pics while working.

Re: The reloading Gods were with me on this deal...

When I get off work I'll take pics of my new "studio." the seller was an older guy that did a lot of competitive shooting down here in Florida. He's moving to a new house and couldn't bring it all with him due to space limitations.

I loaded my first 20 rounds of .223 last night and it's a sweet feeling. No more walmart runs only to be left empty handed because they sold out.

He also has an m40a1 clone with a NF scope for 3500, but I decided to build more or less from the ground up!

I hate you, I thought I got the hookup when I bought 2,000 sierra matchkings for 100 bucks the other day. You wouldn't be interested in sharing the love would ya? lol that IS a smoking deal man.

Bird poop absorber (aka walnut media) at half the cost. Been using it for years from Petsmart.

bag on the right is corncob. Don't use in rifle cases or you will spend all your time unplugging the case. Works well with walnut mixed in with some mineral spirits when cleaning cast boolits during the final stage. Takes pan-lube wax off like nothing else.

The fellow wanted someone to have his stuff and use it, he was not hard up for $$$$. You should have bought him out at $4000.00, You would still have made out like a bandit!!

It's all good. I like to see how other people set up their bench! Looks great. I really am considering buying a progressive because it would take a year and a day to load 1000 rounds for my AR.

I hate to break it to you but you got ripped off. that stuff is nearly worthless. I feel bad for you so I'll just give you 500 bucks and take it of your hands so you don't get screwed over like that.


Nice find man, that's outstanding. Nice thing about reloading stuff is it lasts forever usually so you can find good deals in the secondary, and you scored.

You did great on your buy. The Bruno powder measure and the Gracey trimmer are worth more than you paid.
I also hate the Tampa Tribune, but as Quee said, it does have its uses.

He moved to another city (Tampa) and didn't want to lug his gear with him. He said he had more than enough loaded for the rest of his lifetime.

Holy shit...I wouldn't post this find. This is clearly felony theft!

For me that would be a deal of a lifetime. Congrats on the find. If I were you I would now go spend another $500 on fookin lottery tickets.
