I don't own any reloading equipment yet, but it's something I'm very interested in and would like to start doing once all the hoarding of reloading supplies (and ammo) dies down. When I do get around to it my primary reason for wanting to is so I can make 30-30's and take my Marlin to the range a LOT more often than I get to now, and maybe get into making some deer/hog hunting loads.
Before that though, I'm strongly considering saving up for a Magnum Research BFR. They offer it in 30-30, which was my first choice (for keeping thing simple) but the 45/70 or .454 Casull have caught my eye lately as I research into those.
So, to make yet another one of my long-winded questions shorter: if I'm reloading 30-30 for a Marlin lever action, am I going to need to make adjustments to my powders and/or charges if I decide to make 30-30's that I'll be shooting out of a revolver? Also I assume I'll need to do resizing since they won't be used in the same gun all the time. If I'm going to have to do all of that, I may as well have some fun and go for a whole new caliber...
