Reloading DefensiveCarry.com accepts no liability for reloading information posted by members. It is down to the individual posting to ensure safe standards and to readers to verify what they read - it is they finally who bear responsibility for useage of information. Remember - typos can occur!
We strongly recommend that in most cases quoted loads be derived from recognized loading manuals and if possible these should be referenced. Where loads do not have back-up reference data available, for instance with use of an unusual powder, then posters are asked to please detail their method for establishing their data. Irresponsible publishing of unsubstantiated ''guestimated'' data is deprecated and may be heavily moderated.

Reloading

Sounds like you are thinking about reloading.

By far, the best way to get started is to find someone who reloads and learn hands on from him.

Dillon Precision is a good place to start and you can get their catalog free at 1-800-762-3845.

What sort of hunting do you plan on doing? Pistols or long guns? I'm set up for four rifle calibers now, and I can reload in the field if I need to. Lee Original loaders can still be had for under $25, and find some on EBay as well.

Start here:

YouTube - Basic Reloading: Sizing Pistol Brass

Watch the videos. Then come back for some more specific information. Lots of info and help for beginners on this forum..

Hope this gives you a better idea of the entire process.

Since nobody has mentioned it yet, buy and read the book "The ABCs of Reloading."
