shooterrex Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 The Lee book I think is called Modern Reloading not only tells you what to do but why you are doing it. Also buy a bullet puller to fix your mistakes. Like not turning the powder measure on on a progressive press and loading 150 45acps without powder in them.

Bet you can't shoot more than one without major curse words spewing forth. Or at least you better not shoot more than one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least you realized the mistake…beforehand, I hope?!?! But agree completely!! I’ve used my bullet puller more times in a week than I thought I’d use it in a year. Amazing how easy it is to overlook something if you allow yourself to get the SLIGHTEST bit distracted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooterrex Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 Yep. When it goes pop instead of boom you know there is a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffery Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 I just started toying with the idea of reloading. I bought the Lyman 50th anniversery addition on reloading and Im reading it now. Still watching tons of videos. I had no idea there was so much to all of this. Its staggering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianK Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 Well, there can be. The rabbit hole can but doesn't need to go deep unless you want it to. Start slow and maybe you can get more involved but there's nothing that says that you must. I started with a single stage press and just what I needed to reload safe 9mm ammo. It took me years to become a handloader. There's still a great deal that I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
