I reload. I just don't reload .303 for the Enfield or 6.5 for my Swiss Mauser. I think the reason is, I never wanted an Enfield in the first place. I just happened to acquire it. I did buy the Swiss Mauser but I thought I was going to get a lot of surplus ammo for it. Both rifles were shot a couple of times and then forgotten.

As far as reloading is concerned, I only enjoy it so I can shoot a lot. I never liked the idea of switching the primer set up for the Dillon. Check my profile page. I have two Dillons set up. One for large primers and the other for small.

Glad to hear it. I did some amazing things with a (probably discontinued) Lee Target Loader...shrunk '06 groups from 4" (Rem.) to sub-MOA 180 gr. Nosler PP by seating just behind the rifling, and almost filling the cases with Hogdon powder. Nosler book to the letter. It worked ! I like the manual priming tool...you can "feel in" the primer...but it takes time. I will be getting a press, and a pocket tool for..being Muttly, I suppose...but I am shooting a lot of pistol rounds these days, and want to tweak performance, especially in revolvers.
