Its not often I come to ask questions, but I could really use some help. I finally got my first AR15, a Rock River Arms. Now I need to reload for it. I plan on using my single stage, as opposed to using the progressive or turret press. Here come the questions though:
1. Small rifle primers are a no-no, right? I seem to remember reading that you were supposed to use specific primers for an AR, is there truth to this?
2. How about a cheap source for bullets? I am not reloading competition ammo, but I do some shooting at 100 yards and like to plink for the gong thats set at 235 at my club.
3. Powder recommendations? I use a lot of alliant, but I am not married to it. I prefer something that is economical though.
4. Rifle dies are 2 die sets. I guess there is no flaring step, right?
Any help guys, I would appreciate it. This is a whole new world to me, as I usually load for handguns only.
