I did this for a couple years. I used press mounted to a formica sink cutout clamped to the kitchen table. Of course it wasn't the volume of reloading I do now.

Gotta wait a month for the check to clear.

I ordered from them Feb. 24th with no issues. (Oops... Jan.24) I'm excited to try the hollow base .38's in my pocket pistol.

Camping on the range is the best part of Cowboy Shooting. Everywhere I have dry camped allowed generators to run all night. You will definitely want an Inverter generator"s" that is big enough to run your air conditioner. We just place the generator as far away from other campers as possible to limit the noise and exhaust. I have a 30 gal. water tank and two of us make it last for a week or more while taking navy showres every day. Some places may let you dump the gray tank, just ask. I will almost always empty my tanks at home or at a dump station on the way home. *side note* carry extra blocks to level your camper out. Most dry camping areas are not level. You'll figure it all out as you go.

When sizing 44-40 cases you'll need a good case lube to keep from crushing them. I have found that Sharp Shoot R Royal Case Lube (at Midway USA) to work the best. Hornady One Shot still let them get crushed when I tried using it. I haven't tried any others types of lube since using the Sharp lube.

The Revenuer will set you on a good path. I've been doing this since 2013 and my practice is at the monthly and State shoots. I think I'm getting better. -
I don't understand the issue of squibs and Clays powder. I've used it for 30 some years in 12 gauge, 45 ACP, 45 Colt, 44-40, .357, .38 spl. & 44 magnum and have never had a squib, ever. I live in northern Indiana and have shot in temperatures hovering around 0 degrees fahrenheit.

Maybe Clays will follow.

Badges? Yes, we need some stinkin’ badges!

I use my NMV holsters with my OMV or NMV without issue. The NMV are a bit looser and the the OMV may need KG9 lube every once and awhile, usually on hot humid days.
