Default Reloading Automation

Tuesday I received my Lee LoadMaster progressive press for .223 Remington.
Adjusted and tested, weighed several powder charges, etc. I reloaded a few
cartridges last night and ran a small batch tonight, now I have 126 reloaded
cartridges plus 80 purchased. The 126 was the number of brass I had ready
to reload...

Some of my brass has crimped primers, I need to ream or swage them to the
correct shape. I have some other brass that has the Berdan sp primers. I
saw some info on the internet about drilling Berdan primers out to accept
regular primers.

Potential for further automation includes an escapement for case feeding and
a bullet feeder.
