[QUOTE="Firewurx, post: 2097590, member: 89820"] I’ve gotten quite a bit of old reloading stuff lately from knowing folks who’s relatives have passed and they were preparing for sales because they didn’t want the stuff. In one I got a bunch of once-fired cases and some shotgun hulls I could use. In another I got one guy’s whole RCBS setup: an old Reloader Special press, case trimmer, scale, powder thrower, mixed cases - mostly .38/.357/.30-30, .25-06, mixed amounts of bullets, 6 sleeves of various primers, 6-8 pounds of various powders, old manuals, case blocks, etc.; all for nothing! I offered cash but they declined so I helped clean out the house with them afterwards. He passed 30 years ago I was told, some stuff was a little rusted up from being in the basement but most should clean up, except maybe the case trimmer, it’s seized up. I’m gonna seat a couple primers and make sure they go off before I load any up and if so I’ll be shooting a little of this stuff since it’s old and didn’t cost me anything. I told the guy’s daughter I’d load her some .38s to shoot in exchange for the supplies since nobody can find any around my area. [/QUOTE]
