I think I need to make more posts before I can PM. In the meantime my email is [email protected] - I am very interested in the brass or full cartridges. I can pay via PayPal or Venmo. Thanks!!!!

Ben, welcome to the forum. You will find a lot of good people on this site that are more than willing to help not only with information but the 'parts'.

How do I PM? I'll take that deal. Then I can use the brass for reloading. I did just buy 200 large rifle primers and sportsman's and have a lead on bullets.

Chambersburg. I will be in Colorado from June 1 til mid August though. We just bought a house here in Chambersburg where I grew up and my folks still live. But we own a house in Summit CO Colorado that we need to rent out and move our stuff out of.

Stop by my place in Colorado and I can help you out.

Can you make it out of 260rem? That brass is everywhere out here

no you can not make it from 260 rem brass

Yep. 260 Rem is the 6.5 Creed w/o the man-bun.

I agree 100% with the single stage press. I started with one and I will end with one. Hunting bullets need craftsmanship that a good RCBS single stage press will deliver. Not a fan of digital scales either.

Amen to that. Even using the power measuring system on progressive press need to be checked often to make sure charge is correct. I use my progressive to crank out pistol and my prarrie dog cartridges. For my hunting/precision long range loads I want everything exactly the same, hence I use my single stage press. But I'm not trying to crank out 1000 rounds at one setting. I do have a digital scale because I can have it throw a charge while I'm working, but also check with my old reliable balance beam scale before loading the charge into the case. Better safe than sorry!

It's obvious I have so much to learn. Thankfully I'm motivated to do so and am humble enough to realize how little I do know and how crucial be teachable is.
