I let Zak and company teach me how to shoot at long range a few months ago, and ended up picking up a new rifle afterward. (I've got a review of the course coming, but it was such a "wow, the whole world is different now" kind of experience that it's taking longer than it should. Soon.)
Anyway, I'm sold on the .260 and I have one to feed, but prices for pre-loaded rounds are high enough to finally push me to start reloading.
I may end up loading .45 ACP in the future as well which would argue for a progressive, but in the short term I'd just like to be able to fine-tune loads for my rifle and work on doing everything right.
so the question is: what's the most simple setup I can buy for building really consistent loads? I'm happy to spend money for automation and digital doodads if necessary, but I'd like to avoid unnecessary expenses to start. I'll need a press, dies, reloading components, and some sort of scale, but beyond that I'm kind of lost (case trimming and resizing? Dunno nuthin.)
So, where's a reloading noob to start?
