At what point does it make sense to reload 50 BMG? Is the Lee set good enough? Any particular issues with reloading the 50? I reload alot, however, I'm very ignorant when it comes to reloading the 50. Thanks for any information. |

If you'll look at the link right below this: CHeaper than Dirt 50 bmg prices The Lee Kit is $175- $150 on sale, Projectiles(surplus) $0.10- $0.30 apiece. IMR 5010 (Pulldown) $27.00 per 8lb jug, CCI Primers $0.20 apiece and Brass $0.50-$0.75 apiece. so lets see Lee Kit $175.00 Projectiles (1000)$100.00 Primers (1000) $200.00 powder(32 lbs) $108.00 Brass (100 pcs) $75 (remove brass cost if you already have some) Total $658.00 (this figure will load roughly 800rds) Cheaper than dirt you only get 150rds for more money. Loading 50 is like every other rifle cartridge except every thing is bigger and heavier

Is the Lee kit good enough? |
It's up to $154 now?? Why is a new bullet seater needed? Is it custom designed to the bullet you send them? |
