Reloading windfall

A fellow told me about a bunch of reloading stuff he has stored in a shed at his home. Seems it belonged to his departed grandfather and the guy was going to list it on ebay for sale. He is now convinced that it would be a better idea to bring it over to my place. Since he is not a reloader, he has no idea what he has but thinks there is a shotgun press and the other press is for rifle cartridges. The stuff is being delivered next weekend. Cannot wait to see what turns up.

This equipment will end up as part of instructing a fellow shooter how to reload. He can have whatever is usable. All the best...

I hope you offer that fellow a few dollars for his kindness. Smile

Very few people are willing to show any generosity these days, that guy is either a good friend or a pretty decent person.

You are certainly passing the original owners Karma on by using his gear to teach a new reloader. Good luck and thanks for helping to pass our passion on to another shooter.

The fellow with the reloading equipment is my significant other's son. I have told him that I will buy the presses and any accessories. Everyone involved will benefit from this transaction. The new shooter really wants to reload and I am eager to help him out. I like a story with a happy ending. All the best...
