Finally got started
« on: December 28, 2005, 11:45:28 AM »
I told myself to wait until deer season was over but I have been reading all the books and  got to excited. I started with my .243 used 41 grains IMR 4350 with a 100 grain sierra boattail bullet. Now I can hardly wait to shoot them. Hope to post results soon.   tvc15

Gee, sounds like me.
I'm also starting with .243.  
Put together my press.  Resized some new brass.  Seated a test bullet(without powder or primer)

Just picked up some powder and primers.  Ready to try next step.  It is exciting.

Good luck to you
