    Nothing Personal at all, but when I reload, the last thing I want is the distraction of another person in the room with me. It is too easy to make a mistake when someone is talking to you, I've done it and luckily it was a lack of powder charge, and not a double charge. For me, reloading is my personal time to get away from other people.

    Kinda late to get into this posting.... however, I am in Pflugerville, load 9x18, 9x19, 7.62x39 and .38 with Lee presses and 6.5x55 using a lee hand loader kit (hammer type). Also load 12 and 20 ga with Mec presses. Have a couple friends close by that also load a variety of cal including .45 as well as some other rifle cal(s).

    We shoot local and pick up our and any other brass that falls into our bags so usually have some oddball or "surplus" brass laying under the benches. Always looking for "deals" or people that are looking to get rid of or acquire "stuff" Powder/Brass/Primers/Bullets. May be worth chatting a time or two.

    I have lee .308 dies.. They are old but I sure get some good results out of them. The lee collet neck die seems to keep things very straight and consistent. I don't have much spare .308 components. I usually just keep on board what I need for a few outings and then restock. I do have some primers though if that is what you need.

    Id like to load up some .45. msg me at some point see if we can find some time.

    CanTex I have 6000 Wolf Large rifle magnum primers. I will sell them for $30.00 a box. They sell for $33 a box on the web + shipping + hazmat. Not to hijack the thread though. I guess msg me as I have a few other things I am trying to get rid of.

    Its time for this thread to be closed unless yall want it to stay open for others to meet up. I am moving to Houston at the end of the month so i wont be around for anyone to reload with me.
