And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Got me beat. Bought my RCBS Jr. in 1976. Bought a spare on closeout for $19.95 around 1980. Spare is still NIB. Starting in 2011, I worked the floor for a couple of years at Huntington's in Oroville.
I stole my dad's Rockchucker in the early 90's. I remember using it in the early 70's where I had case re-size/de-prime duties. I now use it for rifle case prep and case prep/primer for all of my large primer cases. The Dillon 550B gets everything else.
Turret loaders are the only way to go.
ReplyDeleteI have two, one bought in '73 and the other in '82.

ReplyDeleteYep, I got mine back in '78 I think. But I lost all that in that tragic canoe accident. . . .
ReplyDeleteStarted with one for myself and my disabled daughter to have something to do. She moved on and I got a Dillon XL650 to dampen my sadness.

Mine still looks and acts brand-new after some forty years of hard use.
