I'm officially a reloader! I decided to go with the Lee Classic Turret Kit. It is really easy and efficient and economical compared to other options. I added to the kit a decent caliper, the Lee case trimming tool and some Lee dies.

I started with 9mm with a pack of very cheap 9mm bullets. This seemed like a nice way to work up my skills before going to the rifle rounds while providing me with a supply of economical pistol rounds to improve my pistol shooting skills. I'm able to really crank these rounds out on the turret press. I had a chance to shoot my first lot, and they all went bang (except two with primers that may have be contaminated by my dropping and touching) and not BOOM.
Now it's time to move to the Grendel rounds. I bought some IMR 8208 XBR powder yesterday with some ELD Match 123gr bullets. Does anyone have good load data they would recommend? (Best guess now is to go from 26 to 28.5 gr, COAL 2.250). I'll move over to the Reloading Posts section to learn more.
