Beginer in reloading

If a man was to want to get into the reloading deal would one of the RCBS kits be the way to go to get started? Mainly going to be reloading rifle ammo to hunt with, no pistol.

RCBS makes good reloading equipment and they have a great reputation. Be hard to go wrong with their stuff in my opinion. Good luck.

I have been using "my brothers" RCBS Rockchucker for over 30 years, and it is still going strong. They (RCBS) have a great warrentee.

First and formost, ask questions, and buy a few manuals. Sierra, Hornady, Lyman, REAL manuals. The Caliber specific ones are nice from what I hear. But just not the same as the others. You need to learn about trimming, crimping, seating, powders, safe practices, and stuff...

Kind of like SCUBA diving, It's so easy to do, but you can get in trouble real quick if you goof up.

Try out the search feature on this site, it is really nice and you can find lots of info on reloading gear.

If it's not worth doing, then it's certainly not worth doing right.

Seventeen there is a post that has been going on for a while in the Raw Beginners forum called "made the leap". If you read that you'll get a wealth of information in just a few minutes.
