Several new items on the bench, new to the bench, but not necessarily new from the manufacturer:
Dillon RL 550 press.
Dillon 148g HBWC (presumably a 500 count box, I didn't look closely): $30
Unknown .356" diameter LSWC (again assume it's 500 count, forget the weight and brand): $40
Plenty of other bullets, older stock, full and partials at discounted prices (e.g. Sierra .308" 150 Spitzer, 100 ct: $11, Hornady 200g JSWC .451" Match: $15).

Also has a tin plus of what appears to be Albanian brass-cased .217" diameter berdan-primed 7.62x54R.

How about a 7.35mm Carcano for $100 (can't swear it is complete...)?

.38 caliber HBWCs are gone.
The $100 Carcano is a parts gun; no bolt.
There two other 7.35mm Carcano rifles there. Long gun $175, Carbine $350.
I bought an 80 count box of Speer 165g RNSP for $8; pretty representative of the pricing on these bullets.

Worth a look if you are in the area. There are other presses there, but I don't have every detail: MEC, P-W, etc.
Plenty of older stock/partial boxes of bullets in .224", .257", .264". 277", .284" and 308" diameter.
If I had the cash, I'd buy all of the .308" fodder. Can't even get plated bullets for <11¢ a pop.
