So last month I received a Lee Single stage reloading kit. I'm starting with 7.62x54R, so I accumulated some brass, bullets, primers, but no powder so as I wait for a supply of powder to come up, I did everything I could so far. cleaned, resized, and trimmed.
I've been doing a lot of research before I dove into this hobby.
I'm using 150Gr .311 Spitzer bullets, with a Lee die set, equipped with a .311 EZ expander.
I used the breach lock bushings for all 3 dies to make life easier, and it does.
So I did manage to properly seat a bullet and crimp it with a slight taper crimp. I used this as a practice one before I started loading live rounds, and simply turned it into a nice keychain.
but aside from all that, the only powder I can find in stock is Norma from Midway, but I cant justify buying 1 lb when the cost to ship is more than the product. any help?
