    Loading press when it’s dark out means lots more time shooting when it’s light out at the range.

    Have to choose, I guess. I like both, in rifles. Never have shot a c&b revolver.

Reading about some things can be a great part of the enjoyment of their history and importance in the greater scheme of things. Helps make them come alive a bit more.
    Excellent books. I have a set signed by the authors.

    Great for reading while sipping a nice glass of one's favorite beverage.

    My old friend that collected and traded in Sharps rifles had a set, the first ones I saw, then I discovered the library up north had a set. A signed set would be a great addition to ones personal library. Well done!

    Concur on the 550, it's just an amazing press.
