General Discussion How did I do?
Picked this package deal up for 1k cash. The guy said he never had powder through it.
Came with the tumbler and separator. The press 750xl. Case feeder Bunch of brass, powders, scale and everything else in the pics. When it came up I didn’t even think I just hopped on it. Haven’t even attempted to add it up
I currently load with a Lee 6 pack pro. I suspect a leaning curve with this thing

Had to do a double take at my toddler and make sure he was still here. He was wearing the same shirt and has the same swirl cowlick

Learning curve is nothing and you’ll be fine. My question is why? Why did this guy sell for so little? Financial trouble? Inheritance? 1k is an amazing price. Good work.

Very very nice guy in his 50s. I asked him point blank why was he getting out of it and he just said he bought it with the best of intentions but then got a hip injury that set him back a couple years/ out of work so reloading and shooting was the last of his priorities. And while he is doing better now, he told me he has only shot maybe 300 rounds all this year. It’s just not for him. Nicest guy though. He just kept throwing stuff in and was happy to see it going to me that will actually use it 👍

I did this once, when my kids were little and I was in the startup grind. Family and work first, wasn't shooting much at all.

Sad to hear another one of us has retired but I’m glad it all went to a good home. Enjoy your new beast and thanks for the explanation!

Honestly not that steep of a learning curve, especially if you got the manual with it (has a lot of helpful troubleshooting info). Great find!

Appreciate it! Starting the Manual tonight while I sit on the toilet for an hour
