357 magnums with a lee hand loader kit. lots of butt puckering fun hammering away to seat the primers and the bullets.
15.5 grains of H110 under Hornady 158gn hollow points using magnum pistol primers.
How do people get to where they can dip the right amount of powder without measuring every load? Dadgum powder seems to stick to everything and always residue in the pan left over after weighing and pouring into the casing. Lots to learn.
I am looking at the idea of getting a press instead of this. Too crazy whacking on bullets with that hammer.

Ran up another 35 with 16gr of powder this afternoon. Maybe touch them off in a little while.

It was fun shooting them about an hour ago. Nice flame productions. Sure do shoot faster than loading them takes.

I used to use a RCBS powder measure with the small charge bar in it. Just drop the powder in the powder measure pan and weigh to be sure.
It was fairly accurate if I popped the handle up to drop the charge on the powder measure.

I have an rcbs powder dispenser that is adjustable, once you get it set all you do is rotate the handle and your charges are all the same. I'm sure the dipping thing gets old quick and is time consuming.
If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.
