Default Survival reloading

Not sure if this has been posted before, but cool stuff!

I plan on grabbing 9mm and .45 ACP versions to keep on hand.

I have a Lee Loader in 22 Hornet, but for portable reloading I prefer the Lee Hand Press because you don't need a mallet or a tabletop.


I use mine all the time for decapping, sizing and expanding, which I can do sitting on the couch watching TV. I prime with the Lee handloader, but use a bench mounted press for charging, seating and crimping.

I have taken it to the range and reloaded right at the shooting bench, using pre-measured charges in little paint bottles.

I started on a Lee Loader, back in the 70's. Picture:

You probably didn't have seat belts or bicycle helmets either! How did you ever survive?
