AUGUST 2013 NEWSLETTER
The Titan Crew is going to the lake from August 11th to the 15th. We left a few fish behind last year and we’re returning to claim them. The website will be available for ordering products during this time but shipment of orders will be delayed until our return on the 16th. We will get caught up quickly and we will call for the big trucks, it’s all good.
We have added the Load All 2 to the list of presses that we make covers for. These covers are tailored in heavy cloth material and will cover your press with accessories mounted. CLICK HERE to check them out.
We are truly enjoying all the friends we have made through Titan Reloading and look forward to many more. Feel free to contact us. When possible, please email us rather than call. Due to our limited phone system and staff we are able to respond to your questions quicker via email. Please include your full name or order ID number with any order inquiries. Service and Support is our top priority. As always, you will find many answers to questions in the “FAQ” and “Help Videos” areas of our website www.titanreloading.com

INSIGHT OF THE MONTH:
50th Anniversary Kit vs. Breech Lock Challenger Kit
The 50th Anniversary kit and Breech Lock Challenger Kit will work for both rifle and pistol cartridges. What differentiates these kits is the way you prime. The Anniversary kit is for those who prefer to prime on the press (typically customers reloading handgun cartridges since there is minimal case conditioning required). The Breech Lock Challenger press is for those who prefer to prime off the press using the Auto-Prime XR (typically customers reloading rifle cartridges since cases need to be trimmed).
These kits are designed to be a “Generic” kit, to which one adds the appropriate die set(s) for the cartridge(s) you plan to reload. Only Lee Dies include the shell holders (except RGB) that is necessary to use your dies on the press. It accommodates both the beginner and the experienced.
For rifle calibers, one should also add the appropriate case length gauge/shell holder to go with the case trimming tools included in the kit. Pistol cases seldom need to be trimmed as they generally wear out before actually needing it. We do make them however for those people who want the peace of mind.
