Loading the GNR cartridges are as easy as resizing brass and adding the components. Gary sees that as a big consideration in design. I have a delirious fun time at it. Any minor snafus I can figure out the origin and fix them myself.

I'm a member of another forum that focuses on LEE products. I have some LEE stuff but anyone with a pea sized brain knows it's more economy grade and requires some finesse and babying a little. Of all things good in this world I'd NEVER pick a LEE progressive loader over something more proven and substantial. Many of the parts are plastic and pot metal, cheap pot metal. It is amazing guys get done what they do. But the questions that get asked and posted are mind numbing and even scary. If they don't know THAT what in the world are they loading for in the first place?! Seems some want to try reloading and go right out and buy the top end LEE progressive kit. What a horrific mistake! That limits one to a single caliber without a very prolonged swap kit and tune. You can swap calibers but what a pain. I get all sweaty at thinking how a novice might be trying to figure things out, putting primers in sideways, crumpling cases, not dumping powder, no crimp etc. I could see a progressive kit for a few high volume calibers you shoot but mercy, you need a single stage set up on the bench too. If nothing else it teaches the basic principals in an understandable format rather than managing 6 things happening all at once.

I wish I could tell these guys to go buy GOOD single stage set up to LEARN how to load first. I tried that once and they almost banned me, lots of actual hate comments. You know me, I was being very diplomatic and kind. It was in the form of a suggestive concept. I had no idea that many Liberals enjoyed (progressive) reloading!
