Know where you are bud. I have recently been out and paid an obscene amount of dough on reloading gear - I couldnt even start to put it together. I plonked the whole caboose in a box and shot down to Wilson and wilsons in ramsgate put it on the table and said help please ( Peter had probably seen my look of bewilderment on my face and took pity on me) any way a hour and a half later, I came out of the shop will all the dies etc all set up all the gear put together properly, with instructions ringing in my ears to get the books required and read them all. I then went my shooting buddy and drove him ballistically mad with all my new found knowledge from said books etc.
He got me going through all the basics and under great pressure and stress I loaded some 10 .270 rounds of which I can report are brilliantly accurate, they were from already proved loading but it didn't matter to me I made em.
Now, I'm still nervous about it and the objective is measure twice cut once, my philosophy at the moment is measure 15 times and possibly look at the cut once you checked one more time, my buddy thinks I'm an idiot doing little plots of rounds five at a time, have had a bucket full of dummy rounds and practice rounds but I can tell you there is nothing better than reloading your own rounds it sort of brings it all together. I love it but still can't figure out why I didn't do it years ago, saving over a pound a round easily and accurate ----
Stick with it, read up on everything and take on board advice and write down everything as you go, double check everything, if I can do it, even my wife comments --- " that's a first, you've actually read some instructions" I love it. Get some sound advice. And stick with it enjoy
Good luck
Phil
