1968, Lee Loader for .38 Spl. Used the supplied scoop for powder charging. I remember the first round fired was out of an Old Model Blackhawk. I stuck the revolver out in front of me, turned my head the other way and pulled the trigger. Was somewhat surprised and relieved when it went bang instead of kaboom, so I was hooked. Maybe a year later got a Lyman 310 tool and then a Lyman C press.

1978 got an RCBS Jr single stage which I'm still using.


Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.
Hit the target, all else is twaddle!
