where to start?

[TheCanuck]

hey guys i just ordered a rifle, and its going to be here in 2 weeks, and i want to reload. i've never reloaded before. I don't know where to start.

What do i need? i guess a press and an electronic scale, but what else?

Thanks for the info guys

A press for sure, and a scale. Love 'em or hate 'em, Lee kits work, and have pretty much everything you need to start. You also need a manual.

i dont think i really need a manual right now. SSGP2 has a load for me he uses in his own 700p. So i only need a scale and a press? I want a good precise scale, wich brand do you guys recommend?

Other than that, id need brass, pills, powder and primers and alot of spare time and cash?

fogducker, good idea. That'll be cheaper than buying a teaching video. it'll be more fun too

Canuck, get your hands on a good reloading manual (oh, hell, 2 or three) and read it (them) at least a couple of times.

THEN ask whatever questions you haven't seen the answer to 8)

I like the Lee big book which I sell a lot of at $25 or so to beginning handloaders.

You may trust your new or old buddies but when it comes to info that can kill you - look it up yourself, best is from a couple sources at least. Then, and only then, listen to others' "favourite loads".
