	We have seen some amazing collections go to auction over the last 2 to 3 years. Where are all the reloading tools? I usually only buy reloading tools (and brass) in the calibers of my rifles unless something is rare. Here is a partial view of my "stuff" ... The powder measures (left to right) are ... Lyman No.5 , Lyman No.6 Duplex , Milwaukee Duplex , J.D. Wilkinson (x2) , H.M. Pope Duplex

	Nice collection Joe! That funnel on the Wilkinson is probably tougher to find than the Wilkinson measure is! Wish I could find one for mine!

	Thanks Vall ... that funnel is a reproduction and a gift from a friend. Approx. 5 years ago an original funnel was listed on eBay. I kept the photos but never bid on the funnel because I didn't really know enough about that powder measure ... so dumb !

	Nice collection, Joe. Thanks for showing it to us. Here's another we don't see for sale often.. Those black things, an inch in diameter, are grains of powder. They filled three bags with 110 pounds per sack, per load. But, they breech seated for best accuracy.

	I've got a few old powder tins, a Lyman #5 powder measure, and a couple of boxes full of shotgun crimpers and hand tools and Winchester reloading tong tools and moulds. Not nearly enough though, and I really don't have anywhere to display them properly!

	"Bob" Robert Holter is in his nineties, but still going strong. he is the fellow that makes the Wilkinson measure funnels his # is 406-453-6105. he is one of the old time collectors and shooters of single shot rifles.
