I want to shoot my 1895 Marlin 45-70 a lot more say 300 rounds a month. I can't afford new ammo prices for that and I have about 200 45-70 brass cases I've saved. I don't have any reloading equipment and outside of this cartridge I don't plan to do any reloading.
All I'm looking to do is practice more for hunting type shooting positions not on a bench with accuracy around 3" at 50 yards. Mostly shooting paper or 2 L bottles at 50 yards.
Will the classic lee loader be good enough and safe for this purpose? Will the powder scooper be adequate? When it comes to real hunting I will just buy factory loads. Many thanks.
