Reloading Question
Posted by Trainmaster111@reddit | Firearms | View on Reddit | 5 comments
Considering starting reloading. I want to start with shotshells as i figure those are the simplest and most customizable rounds to load.
Im looking for a list of what I'd need for basic shell components and good places to buy said components.

You are incorrect about your assumptions about shotshells.
You pretty much need to follow the load data to the T with shotshells. Otherwise you're creating bombs.
Also, the equipment used to load shotshells won't work for loading metallic cartridges.

Im trying to make cowboy loads. Surely such data exists and I wouldn't need to literally trial and error it.

Follow published recipes! Just changing one component ran spike the pressure to unsafe levels.

if you want great gear, cheap, hit local estate sales. lots of old reloaders are aging out of the game and the gear lasts forever
