Putting together an ebook for beginners....

[hestes]

My Husband and I are putting together an ebook for beginner reloaders on reloading handgun ammunition. We're trying to make it as straight forward as possible to help get beginners up to speed and reloading safely, quickly. We want to make sure we capture and address the common questions and issue that beginners have.

Do you have any questions, etc that you think should be addressed in the book for someone who is brand new to reloading for handguns?

We are using a progressive press, but the theory will be based on a single stage press and work up to using a progressive.

Thanks!

#1. How much money will I save?
#2. How do I pick components, powder, bullet, primmer?
#3. What reloading books should I get, How many should I get, can I start with
a used one?
#4. What are plated bullets and where do I find data for them?


That's all I can think of so far hope that helps.

Might be wise to consider turret presses for pistol, even for starters...

Most everything is available to a beginner in almost any brand reloading manual,
or the ABC's of Reloading book.
If they would all just buy one and read it twice, or until it sinks in.

Thats how I and many others had to learn reloading 50 years ago.

Unfortunately, you can lead a horse to water.
But you can't make them drink.

Or, you can buy them books and send them to school.
But you can't stop them from eating the pages and drooling all over the covers.

Chuckle....That's a fact.

The info is everywhere these days, but the best place to learn for a complete newbie is the reloading manuals from established companies with a lot at stake to get it right.

After that, the net is full of good, and bad, info for folks to glean through, and hope they pick out the good stuff. There is a lot of poor info typed on forums etc. Some is downright dangerous.
