I've been saving all my brass for a long time as I do plan on reloading at some point in the near future. I'm looking at buying some used equipment from a friend of mine's father who hasn't used it in years. If I do score his stuff, the only thing I'd need to do is buy a good multi stage as his is single.

When the time comes, I know who I'm going to get advice from for reloading my .308's and .45's......
Pick up a reloading manual something like Lee or what ever just get one and read it the first few chapters. All the rest of the book is load data you can use.


The best tool I have for loading is a cheap lee hand press that I take to the range with me $49 and I use the hell out of it.
I prep some brass, prime them then grab the small digital scale, powder along with a hand full of bullets and load at the Shooting bench working out a load for my gun. "every thing I need fits in a small back pack".

No factory ammo can compare to what you load in accuracy.

Starting out remember "KIS" keep it simple, start with a single stage press and learn each stage then move to progressive or turret press.

The only thing I don't like about progressive or turret presses is the powder dump I prefer to weigh each charge.
