I am looking at getting into reloading in order to cut some costs down on ammo and insulate from future shortages / pricing spikes. Right now I'm looking toward the Hornady Lock N Load AP press for my starting rig.
My main intent is to reload .45 ACP ball for practice and some HP for carry, some 5.56 for practice and surplus SHTF supply, and some .308 match ammo for getting into the long range bolt game.
I know ultimate accuracy can be obtained from a single stage press for the .308 but the LnL AP seems to be a descent package for the whole plan.
Is there a single powder that would work well with all 3 calibers or are there certain powders for each that I would have to buy? Mainly, seeing the hazmat shipping costs I don't want to buy 3 powders for 3 loads. My priority would be accuracy with the .308
Thanks for the help.
