Finally did it

[timcar86]

Took me long enough and a lot of searching for components but I finally loaded my first one.

 

And then I loaded 30 more with various loads.

 

The green tips are the Z-Max cartridges that I'll use as my control. Hopefully I can get a good day of weather to try them out.

Congrats, if ya think it feels good now, you wont be able to wipe the smile off your

face for a few hours after you shoot what you just loaded.

You never forget your first one!  I think I weighted it 3 times and when it was time to fire it...I wanted to use a string to pull the trigger. 

 

and then when you get your first group that's a single hole!  You feel so proud.

 

Good luck; let us know how it goes!

Glad I am not the only one that did that. :wave:

Just getting my set up. Got a Lee Classic Cast without the breech lock. Going to load 45-120, 300 win mag. 243, 44 mag, 45 acp and .380. Single stage is enough for me. Don't have time to shoot too much. Just a beginner but this press looks and feels like a brick shit house. It is smooth as silk and seems to really have a lot of power.
