What I did last weekend...

I loaded these last weekend:

. 9mm (lead)
.357Sig
.38 Special
.45ACP (Wolf, steel-cased, to compare to mine)
.45ACP (several different loads and bullets)
.223 Remington
.303 British
.35 Remington (not pictured)

These were all done with a Lyman Spar-T turret press, Hollywood Gun Co powder measurer, Lyman electronic scale and a Lyman tumbler.

Can you load .32acp? You can handload JHP's up past 1,200fps but cannot buy anything on the market past about 1,050fps.

Yep, I've reloaded about 600 .32ACP for my Ortgies and Walther PPK. I found brass online (Reloadersauction.com - online auction for reloading supplies, equipment, once fired brass, and more), bullets at MidwayUSA and I had tyhe powder and small pistol primers. I'm still looking for .25ACP bullets and brass, since I have the dies to reload those, too. I reload everything I can, from .25ACP to 7mm Remington Magnum.

I would love to get my hands on some max pressure loaded .32 acp gold dots. Can you make me some rounds to order? I would of course pay you for your time and materials.

If you can let me know and i'll get you the recipe.

Guys,
Thanks! I have been busy with my winter hobby and I enjoy reloading/target shooting. It's hard to calculate the costs involved because I bought most of my supplies (primers, powder) when the prices were lower than they are now and most of the brass was given to me. Most brass runs .10 a case and .357Sig is a little lower because it's very difficult to reload and many people don't bother reloading it. I try to get my brass free or pay for it using Reloadersauction.com - online auction for reloading supplies, equipment, once fired brass, and more, Guns - Online Gun Auction - Guns at GunBroker.com or GunsAmerica - Guns - Guns For Sale Classifieds & Auctions B"H - Guns For Sale & Gun Auctions B"H I buy my bullets in bulk from Cabela's (Berry's Plated or Speer/Sierra) and my powder from Cabela's. I bought many boxes of primers when I started 18 months ago at $25 a box of 1000 and the price is now $50 a box of 1000. I figured that my costs to reload are approx. .25 to .50 a round, depending on what I'm loading. .303 British is .85 a round and .45ACP is .30 a round, for instance.

I just reloaded 7mm Remington Magnum for my father's Browning BAR last night. I found new Winchester brass ($40 for 50 cases), used CCI large rifle magnum primers, H4350 powder and bought Nosler 150gr Spitzer, boattail polymer tipped bullets ($30 for 50). They were very easy to load with my Lyman turret press and Lee Pacesetter dies. My father's birthday is coming up and I'm giving him 100 .35 Remington and 50 7mmRem Mag cartridges for his 2 deer rifles.

Prepped 300 .223 Remington cases and then loaded them yesterday. The Dillon primer pocket swager is a life saver! I had some .35 Remington that I couldn't prime, so I swaged them using the small rod in the Dillon swager and it worked like a charm!
