i'm a rookie so this is really a huge question...i'm really asking a all encompassing question. starting off from scratch, what should i buy?
i'm a bit confused about sizing, particularly dies (.354, .355 & .356 for 9mm?) and punches (i know they come in different shapes based on the projectile you are lubing but that's it).
i have several friends that have volunteered wheel weight lead for me so that shouldn't be a problem (i think).
do i need gas checks on all rifle projectiles?
i really can't spend more then say $500 total on this so i can wait on a few of the molds if i need to, i just want something that will get the job done right.
i've been reloading: 115gr rn 9mm 230gr rn 45ACP 255gr swc 45LC 180gr bt .308WIN (and i'm about to start reloading .40S&W) and my preference is in that order.
thanks in advance!!! MrMusic
