My father gave me a Lee Anniversary reloading kit for Christmas last year, and since then I've completed my workbench, and would like to start reloading.
I plan on starting with .38 special, I figured a straight walled revolver cartridge would be a good place to begin, and am looking for any advice you would like to give a noobie!
The kit seems to be fairly complete, I think I only need to procure some shell holders and maybe a case tumbler to have everything I need (for now!) I do have the latest Lyman reloading handbook.
Also, at some point I'd like to start reloading for my K31. It would seem that Redding dies are the way to go here, are they compatible with a Lee press? Being a noob, I am pretty clueless as to compatibility between brands.
Any advice (procedures, materials, suggested loads) will be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance!
