so im putting in the order for my first press and kit tonight
http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct/?productNumber=423081
and just want to make sure that i have this all figured out.
i am planning on:
these dies http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct/?productNumber=251154
these bullets for hunting http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct/?productNumber=468031
these bullets for plinking http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct/?productNumber=2046467736
these brought up another question: i have read that to shoot lead bullets i a micro grooved barrel (marlin 336), they should be slightly over sized by about .003, so is this correct that the .311 diameter hard cast should work?
the info on the kit said that i would also need one of these http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct/?productnumber=432027
i already have my brass, and i will be buying powder and primers from a local guy to save the hazmat fee.
so is there anything i missed? if there are other things that i need i would like to keep it all from the same site, or if it is a common item i will probably just pick it up at scheels the next time i visit.
comments and opinions welcome!
