I actually started reloading 12 and 20 gauge shells a few years before I started reloading rifle cartridges. Started reloading shotgun shells in 1978. Bought the 30-30 dies in about '85 and my press in about '94.
A friend started my reloading for shotguns, my FIL started me reloading for rifles. I used his press and other equipment until I bought my press.
