Hi! I'm new to the forum and to reloading, though I've been shooting intermittently for a decade or so. I can't say I'm much of a marksman, but I'm looking to change that.
I have a few .357 magnum revolvers and one chambered in .44 magnum. And I'd like to start reloading for them. I'm hoping to start with the .357 as it seems it will be slightly more economical. As far as volume goes, I'd be happy with 100-200 rounds a week for range sessions. I'd like to pull everything together and be reloading by the end of the year, so I'm not in any real hurry.
I haven't bought anything yet except a work bench, but I'm hoping some of you will be kind enough to give me some suggestions as to an appropriate reloading manual, and some advice as to equipment. I assume that with the volume of ammo I've mentioned, a single stage press would be suitable but I'm open to other suggestions. I've seen packages which appear to come with pretty much everything except dies. Are they worth looking at, or would it be better to buy equipment separately for quality and longevity of use?
Thanks!
