I am going to get started into reloading. This will be pretty low volume and for only a few calibers for now. I'm going to start with .38 spcl, then .357 mag, and eventually a couple of rifle calibers -- 7mm Rem. Mag., and .243 win. For now though, I have questions about the pistol calibers.
The first thing I want to do is load 148grn wadcutters for .38, if you suggest something else for target shooting and plinking, don't be shy. I've seen some loadings, but would love it if you guys could give me some guidance. The things I've seen don't say what type of primers I need, but I assume small pistol.
Anything I get will be checked against reloading manuals before I try it, but I want to know what I should be ordering because I want to get my equipment and first batch of supplies at the same time.
Any recomendations on bullets, primers, and powder will be appreciated. I've been shooting WWB and saving the brass so I have about 350 cases to get started.
Oh, and I am planning on getting a lower end press, like the lee anniversary kit. I've read the comments about lee presses here, but I think it should work as a good starter press.
