I have a lot of reloading gear, but I have never reloaded a single round. I have to go through it all and see what I have.

I know I have a LOT of .40 brass, and that is not a caliber I am interested in. 1-2 5gal buckets full. I would be very very surprised if I didn't have a .40 powder measure and die set up already on the quick change plate for a Dillon 550. I will get into my boxes and see. I don't want to give up stuff I will likely use, but I am sure I have a lot that I will never be interested in, I just have to see.

My 550 needs another powder measure so I would be interested. What kinds of things you looking for?

Yeah, I know, I probably jumped the gun, I am just eager to become a part of this community. Probably have a lot that I hope to someday use, but I'm sure I have a bunch that I wont.

I wasn't replying to anyone in particular, just putting it out there. How do you like the name Dictionary bot? We can shorten it to just "Dic" ;o)

Not sure what I'm after, other than 9mm and 556 to feed my toys right now. I've been into firearms all my life, but I am only just really starting practicing the hobby, so I don't even know what it is that I do not know.

I have at least 100# of projectiles, probably closer to 300. various calibers. Lot of cowboy lead for sure, at least 2500 rnds. (I have a ruger SAA, short barrel, fixed sights, faux ivory grips, and cart cylinder, but I will likely never use the lead that I have, if any, due to the cart cylinder.)

I checked my boxes quickly, and yep, I do have the 10/.40 dies on a quick change powder measure for the 550. Also looks like I have a spare primer feeder for the 550, but I have to check and make sure all the parts are there, which is tough when I have never used one. Not sure if I should save the powder measure for when i get into reloading or not, but I am definitely not interested in 10mm/.40 dies. I have at least 3 other powder measure setups, so I can probably spare one.
I probably shouldn't mention primers (have a few ;o) ). I have a bunch of powder as well, but I am new, so I dont know the types and whatnot, and what I may eventually use or not. Have a lot of BP pellets or however they are called as well.
I also have a fair bit of mostly clean lead. Some pure, but most of it is 3% antimony. Unfortunately, I have heard that it is impossible to dilute this percentage down ;o). (I only post from PC, but I read here a LOT on my phone)

The list goes on, I just have to get organized.

I never did such a thing. I called you the dictionary bot. Implying a new member doesn't know what barter means, is a bit more insulting to me personally, but YMMV. I guess some can dish it but not take it, duly noted.

This is the barter thread. I started it so people could swap what didn't need for things they do. If you're not trying to trade things, please stop posting here.

Ive got a like new 550b 45acp conversion kit up for trade.

I'm looking for a Dillon powder funnel for 300aac.
I'm also in search of setting up a lyman crusher 2 and need all kind of shell holders since I have none.
Also looking for a powder throw and stand.

Along with the 45 conversion kit ive got random brass, parts, and tools. I'm willing to ship aswell.

I believe(it's been a couple years since I set my 550 up) you'll want a .30 Carbine "C" if you need to flare your 300 Blk brass.

I'll do some reading on that. On the brain enos conversion chart it lists it as an ak funnel. It corrispoded with 7.62x39 and 300aac and thats it.

The AK funnel is not a flaring funnel.
Now, they may have come up with a dedicated 300 AAC flaring funnel by now, but we all use(d) the aforementioned 'C' powder funnel.

Yup, that is correct for lead and flat base bullets. If you are loading jacketed boat tails, you can use the AK funnel.

Hello - I have large rifle and small rifle primers I could sell or trade. I am not reloading like I used to. I also have bullets sitting on my shelf getting dusty - .40/10 mm caliber pistol, 38/357 pistol, and 7mm rifle. Please let me know if interested.
