  1. Not at all. I got it all at the Reloader's Bench in Mt. Juliet. Some of these are kind of near estimates. Don't remember all the exact prices. 550B Press - $429 Press with handle Powder throw One caliber conversion of your choice included Bullet catching bin Primer tube with empty tube buzzer Dillon strong mount - around $48 Dillon roller arm - around $43 Hornady electronic scale - about $32 Hornady case trimmer - around $65 Electronic caliper - around $10-15 Lee die set - around $30 Extra primer pickup tubes - around $20 Frankford Arsonal tumbler and media separator - around $70 Impact bullet puller - around $12 Other than that I got a few bullet boxes, a couple of ammo cans for my son, and some powder, bullets and shells. I already had purchased a couple thousand small pistol primers. I'd say the total for the stuff I really needed was probably around $800. A few other niceties and one or two unrelated items brought my total to $997. Everyone told me to plan on spending around $1000 to get started so that's what I budgeted and just about what I spent so I'd say it's a fair and accurate estimate.
  2. Last weekend I picked a Dillon 550B and some associated accessories. I got the tumbler, scales, some brass, bullets, 9mm dies, etc. I had some brass I had been collecting for a while and went in with a couple of other guys and bulk ordered some primers - 2,000 9mm and 1,000 5.56mm. I also got a 5 drawer Craftsman tool box from Sears on clearance for $54 and change to use as my reloading tool box. Everything is set up and I have been cleaning brass in 9mm, .45, and .380 for the past couple of days. I already reloading about 30 rounds of the brass and bullets I bought with the press, but discovered I need a crimping die. I will be picking that up tomorrow hopefully with the strong mount and roller arm The Reloader's Bench had to order because they weren't in stock. All in all, I'm pretty stoked about getting into reloading. As soon as I get my garage cleaned up a little bit I will actually have a pretty nice little area to reload. Right now I'm doing 9mm but .380, .45, and 5.56/.223 are also in my future. Question: Do you folks buy a toolhead stand for every toolhead or place them carefully to the side/in a drawer?
  3. I don't think so. The Great Wall is actually a bunch of smaller walls in various locations and not a continuous one as many people believe. And it certainly wouldn't show up like that either way.
  4. Ok, that's pretty funny. Bad dog! Bad!
  5. Yep, beat me to it too. Good luck getting back out there though.
  6. You said you don't like the virtual keyboard, but have you tried Swype? I can type pretty quickly, accurately, and easily with it. Might open up your options a bit.
  7. I don't know if it will help with your foot problems, but I see a lot of folks, myself included, wearing Merrill Moabs.
  8. My Mac Pro even made it through an upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion preserving my login info. I'm using Firefox though, if that makes any difference.
  9. One thing to consider: If you pay by check you must wait until it clears the bank before TGO_David will grant your access. Paypal will speed up the process. Also, make sure you read the zero tolerance policy regarding TGO sales/trades.

  14. I hope you didn't take my question as some kind of accusation. I thought it would be perfectly legitimate to Photoshop two of his kills into one picture for comparison, hence the question.
  15. Corrected typo.
  16. We'll see you there then. Just leave the haggis at home, mkay?
  17. Did he Photoshop the two into the same picture? I'm just wondering why a 4 day old shoot isn't dressed yet.
  18. Welcome Brierbo. Spend the next three (long) years getting familiar with various firearms and safety rules and you'll be a very well prepared 21 year old when you're able to carry.
  19. It would have to pretty awesome for me to replace my Sig P232 with it.
  20. Just like owning a car doesn't make you a better driver, apparently having a hunting show doesn't make you a safe and responsible shooter.

  22. Sick. Sick, sick, sick, sick, sick. Oh, and sick too.
  23. If that doesn't work it's time to put that world famous Sig Sauer customer service to the test.
