« on: January 25, 2009, 04:01:09 AM »
I will be going on my first pd hunt this spring. I,am going to start loading now. i have always loaded rifle  with single stage press and hand gun with progressive press. i have rcbs single and Dillon 550 progressive.
I will be taking a 22mag,204,223, and 243. For the 204 and 223 would using the Dillon be ok to use.

If you are going to be trying to "clip off" heads to save the bodies as biological specimens, and you want that kind of accuracy, Dillion, maybe not. If you are going to "go blasting" looking for "red mist" from anything within, say, 500 yards.. Go for it. So you have to fire a 2nd shot. Big deal. ENJOY!!! I wouldn't do "maximum, maximum" loads for any gun without weighing each charge very carefully. Short of that, 1,000 rounds is work with a single stage. I enjoy the work, but it takes time. Dillion? Yes. Happy New Year. Wish I was going along. Luck!
