    Bought tools, NEED clarification!

    Yeah read all the way to the cartridge breakdown. I did omit the handgun reloading section as it doesnt apply to me right now and didnt wana get mixed up with any information. It was a good thing in the way that it described the basics to get you in the game. Told to load to OAL and leave it...

    Bought tools, NEED clarification!

    Hey guys went to Bass Pro last night and got the Lyman book, my shell holder, and a set of Lyman digi calipers. The book hit on most of the things I already knew.....I was actually a little disappointed it didnt go into more detail. Granted it is nice to see some pics and have everything in one...

    Bought tools, NEED clarification!

    My purpose on this first round is to just get a "handle" on reloading and get more used to my gun. Im not sure if this means anything but I have the pull down bullets also and you cant get close to just pushing one in the case mouth. Thats for sure. Its a TIGHT fit! I knew to take the...

    Bought tools, NEED clarification!

    yeah I get the concept but unless Im mistaken the dies I have will only full length size....or am I missing something? Im not gona go buy another die just to neck size this one time.

    Bought tools, NEED clarification!

    As stated earlier I plan to full length size! I already spent $100 bucks on Forster Ultra die set with the micrometer built in. Every sticky I have read and from the KNOW seems they think that full length sizing is the way to go and that Neck sizing is old school.

    Bought tools, NEED clarification!

    Im new to this guys and trying to learn. I was taught the only dumb question is the one that wasnt ask. If Im not sure about something Im gona ask it....especially with reloading. Not gona risk my equipment or my life by winging it.

    Bought tools, NEED clarification!

    I plan to F/L size so that I know all my brass is the same. Thats what I keep saying.....LOL! If Im gona spend the time time why half ass it? No need to bump shoulders back or anything because it is not fired correct? If no then what next. TRIM? I need these tools below to know the correct...

    Bought tools, NEED clarification!

    Thanks Pinecone, Ive already removed the tar because I didnt have anything to do. Why are some saying F/L size and some saying Neck size? Alot I have read says that neck sizing is old school technology. This well be shot from a bolt gun if that matters.

    Bought tools, NEED clarification!

    Im aware of the steps to load O/F brass but being as this is new Im not sure. That is what Im asking. Ive been all over the www and all but just a little bit of info deals with once fired stuff. Just need clarification and if there are any tools that I need (head space, comparitor, etc) I...

    Bought tools, NEED clarification!

    Allright guys I bought my reloading tools for loading my .308. RCBS Rock Chucker Supreme Master kit. Forster Ultra Micrometer die set, Little Crow Gun Works WFT trimming tool and some Imperial Sizing Wax. I have a set of GemPro 250 digi scales also for check weight. I will be loading NEVER...

    Need a little help picking Reloading Tools!!

    Funny you mentioned that. I was just looking at that. Im thinking that WFT trimmer or maybe the WFT 2 (for different calibers) paired up with the Lyman case prep station would be a pretty good buy and be sub $200 for it all. Im only 34 but have some arthritis in my hands and dont think...

    Need a little help picking Reloading Tools!!

    I saw that but dont wana wait 3 months. Im using LC LR brass....no primer crimp. I plan to F/L size with Forester Ultra dies. Ive pretty much got everything else down as far as equipment and how I wana go about doing it.....at least till I actually get my hands on it. Mainly looking at...

    Hey guys fixin to try my hand at reloading for my .308. Ive read and read and read....LOL! Ive settled on the RCBS Rock Chucker Supreme Master kit. It seems to be the best deal BUT does it have everything I need to load up good precision rounds? Ive got 500 never fired pull down/primed Lake...

    Lake City LR Primed brass Question??

    Thanks guys for the input. I did clean the tar out with Qtips and acetone and it did a really good job, some cleaner than others. Im planning on using Forster benchrest dies (might splurge for the Ultra with micrometer). Whats the take on F/L sizing vs. neck sizing these pull downs? I have...

    Do you have to remove the tar?

    Well hopefully my stuff will be here ina few days. Gona just evaluate the situation then. Ive got a couple of ideas. One was mounting a corded drill in a vise pointing up with a .30 cal bore brush on it. Dip the bulled neck down in a bit of acetone, or whatever I got in the shop and hit them...
