processed 2.5K of 223 on the 1050. Is the cost of an auto-drive worth not having to pull the handle, to be or not to be.

I loaded up 25 rounds of .260 Remington to try out my new MWS barrel.

i loaded up some 155s for my LaRue. I need to make sure it still runs right.

Got my Lee turret mounted with C-clamps to the bench and mostly assembled. The instructions that come with everything are pretty terrible, and the auto disk powder dispenser requires a special die that I don't have... Kind of a PITA.

I'm going to use a scale to measure my charges until I have a better feel for things. The die I need is a universal charging die. I'll see if the SW down here has one when I go to look for powder this weekend.

Edit: I don't need the "Universal charging die", I need the "Rifle charging die".

If you've got Lee, I don't think you need the universal charging die (that is just a charge die without belling the case mouth). I believe what you need is this: http://www.titanreloading.com/powder...-measure-riser

The Universal Charge Die is for using the Auto Disk with rifle dies, where they don't come with that case belling / powder dropping die.

And to stay on track of the thread, I tumbled a buttload (english, not metric) of brass. Still trying to sort through what we shot at my bachelor party and if I can scrape up the funds, I might order a bunch of bullets right now. Xtremebullets.com has a 15% off coupon code (while supplies last and they have TONS) on all copper bullets.

No, that piece came with the autodisk, I need an actual die to run it through.
