Powder choice and reloading kit help for a
« on: December 17, 2002, 12:44:39 PM »
Nate,

I started with an RCBS Rockchucker Kit over 30 years ago and still use it...As for 2 powders (yea, I started with a couple of powders also 'cause I thought that would be all I needed---I now have over 50 different powders!!!), I would recommend a powder in the moderate burning range for the 30-30 and 300 Savage--H-335 or IMR-3031, and something in the slower range for the rest--one of the 4350's.  You could go slower with the '06 but it might be too slow for the 25-06 or the 234.  Good-luck...BCB

I've been using the Lee kit for a few years now for my 25/06 22-250 and 223 and I can shot groups well under 1" at 100 yds if I doo my part and have had several under 1/2". I use the Lee collet dies and I like the whole system .....B.....

Hello Nate, May I suggest that you purchase a "Lyman Reloading Handbook". I think you will find all the answers to 99% of all your questions.It is packed full of reloading information that you will find valuable and be able to refer back too anytime.This handloading book seems to give more information to me than some of the others.Hope this helps and good luck.Reloading is quite enjoyable once you get your feet wet. :D  I am CAL.......
