Howdy Frank ,

I can show you how to reload -been doing it for about ten years now.
The best way to go about it would be to round up the components then load a few rounds and go shoot.
I like the Lee dies but whatever you choose is fine.
If you will be loading for an autoloading rifle you will want a set of Dies that will 'full length resize' the brass ,a bolt gun will benefit from 'neck sizing' the fired brass .
You can borrow my stuff to see how you like it -i'm set up to be able to take my reloading equipment to the range and load on the spot -traveling back and forth is too time consuming.


You'll need a set of Dies [full length resizer die and a bullet seater die] , cases , powder ,bullets ,primers to get started ,midsouth shooters supply is where i get my stuff .
Reloadersnest is a good place to go online to research which powder will give you a high probablity of making accurate ammo right out of the gate.
Let me know-.Mike

.......reloading my own ammo is a self fulfilling kinda thing. It gives me pleasure to have a load work out successfully in a given weapon. To kill an animal with my reloads is "the best". I have killed moose,bear,deer,hogs,coyotes,woodchucks,porcupines ,grouse,crows,and probably several others with my hand loads.

Reloading your own ammo is allot easier than most people think. All the components and books make it seem technical and time consuming. It is neither. Back when I started out you had to buy the individual reloading manuals. Now most all info you need is on line.

The absolute very best way to start/gear up to hand load your own ammo is to look over someone else's shoulder. To be taught by another reloader is the very best way to start. It costs a little bit to "tool up",but as you reload more and more the cost actually goes down. --- SAWMAN

Thanks guys now all I need to do is settle on a caliber to reload for!

Glad to see this new thread... I've been loading for over 30 years, but mainly for high powered bolt action rifles which is much simpler that trying to meet the tolerances needed in auto loading pistols. I also load 12 ga. shells occasionally. I can assist anyone in the Navarre area...

.............bamafan owns a Wulf also. I feel a "shoot" comin' on. --- SAWMAN

I love to shoot the wulf, let's get together at a range

[bamafan]

I noticed that too. There must be more Wulfs floating around than I had thought...

I thought I was the only oddball who loves the larger calibers. Actually , I just moved down here from VA. I'm always looking for people to shoot with

[SAWMAN]

Besides the Wulf I shoot the 458Lott,45-70(full throttle),454Casull(in both pistol and rifle)and 44Mag(in both pistol and rifle. Large calibers,heavy bullets,.......what's not to love.

Not really a big caliber but I also shoot the 30-378 Weatherby Mag. It will basically launch any bullet about 1000fps faster than a .308Win. I hit a sick old yote with a 125gr Nosler Ballistic Tip going 4100fps up in Maine. Darned near cut him in half. Shooting these big boys is like operating a D9 Cat. --- SAWMAN
