Getting Started with reloading!
« on: Today at 10:52:55 PM »
I am a complete noob to reloading. I have been researching various systems for function, ease of operation, safety and of course price. I had just about settled on a Lee turret press kit after watching about 100 Utube vids and decided that for the price Lee looked like a good starting point.
* * Then came a sudden epiphany.....my dad was a reloader and when he passed away last year my brother gave me his boxed up reloading equipment which was up in the attic. Now me being disabled getting up into the attic was a real fun time...lol. Anyway I managed to get up there without killing my silly self (and as you may have figured out...down too). I could barely reach the box and just managed to open the top to see what kind of equipment it contained and low and behold there was an RCBS single stage press and a bunch of other stuff.
* * As soon as I get this downstairs and unpacked I will probably have a lot of questions for the good folks of this forum. I want to reload 9mm, 38/357, .40 S&W and .45 ACP because I shoot a lot and it's somewhat expensive....besides the little woman threatened to strangle me if I didn't quit buying so many boolits...lol.
