Hi everyone,
I'm fairly new (3 months) to reloading... spent the better part of 6 months before that reading every manual/guide I could get my hands on. I am ready to take a really good look at casting my own now.
Looking to get started as inexpensively as possible as I have very limited range access and I only work up small loads until I get a feel for them.
looking for personal recommendations on equipment and the like:
.30 rifle mold, anyone have a personal favorite? I was looking for something in 312-314 range to be resized to .311 ( was thinking that a lee C312-185-1R would serve my purposes nicely)
Sizing I assume the lee lubersizer would be a natural bet?
I have where several people are using coleman stoves to melt lead, should I go ahead and 'bite the bullet' and just get a furnace?
Lead source will be wheel weights
Thanks for any comments in advance and I love the board.
Chris
