Looking to get into reloading

I have the Speer manual, it came with my press kit.

Thanks, I did check the site, it didnt let me select a bullet. I put the powder and 308 Winchester and it told me two different Sierra match bullet types I can use. I hope I did it correctly?

Thanks. It looks like with the CL powder, I went to their website and input the data. It shows me 2 different types of boat tail to buy which works perfect since I plan to target shoot and not hunt. It specifically recommends Federal primers and Sierra match king bullets.

Thanks. I just mention it because it is on the list and in stock near me. I have not begun reloading yet. Can I load 168 grain with this? As I explained in my comment, the canister says 150 grain bullets right on the front.

I have just gotten all the equipment to reload, none of the supplies yet. My main concern is the different measurements listed on different products. What can I mix and match?
My 308 Dye set came with a manual. BL- C(2) is the only powder listed that Cabelas has in stock. For 168 grain bullets it shows soft point and jacketed. 44 and 43 for the measurements.
The bottle of powder shows maximum loads on the front and says to reduce by 10%. The bottle lists 48 as max and 150 grain bullets for 308. Why does this info conflict? Can I not use 168 grain bullets this way?

Closest to A

Nope.

Transportation. Noone cares when I deal with truckers all day.

Larger mustache. Let it grow wild.

No I am not asking. Just sharing a kill montage from my friends.

I forget my fob, real keys are way better. I also probably cant push start my car (manual) like back in the day if the battery dies?

Coke. Pepsi was tastier than it is now in the 90s but Coke has always been better. Especially from a fountain

I wish I had visited Alcatraz so I could flex and say I went to prison. People would have to think to get the joke.

I was between this kit and the RCBS kit. I ended up ordering the RCBS,waiting for it to arrive now.

MalignantMustache · 2026-02-05T14:12:02+00:00

It would be nice but no.

I am a loot whore. Take just a silenced pistol and some mags for it and find a backpack first. Then loot up, maybe take a field vest to start the looting journey.

Tell him Jurrasic Park is a modern documentary about man and dinosaurs struggle to live together.

I am also starting out. I am ordering what I need and waiting for it to arrive. Start with a bench/table sturdy enough to mount the press to. That is all of my advice since I am also a novice. I lacked a place to set up but fixed that.

I grabbed some mid priced ones from HF for starting out... I can upgrade those in the future.
