    I think you did a good job covering the basics for a new reloader. I would have started out with get some manuals and actually read and follow them especially for the specific bullet and powder you are using. I would add to that basic info do not drink, watch TV or have other distractions while you are reloading. That is where most reloading mistakes happen when you are distracted. Otherwise good, clear, concise information on many of the most notable reloading myths.

    When setting up the dies just read the instructions that come with the die. Most often with non carbide dies you screw it down until it touches the shell holder and then down 1/8 turn more. You will then be able to feel the ram cam over.

    Neck sizing is the wrong thing to do.
    Thats nickel plated brass.

    Neck sizing has its place.
    Yes, read the manual.

    I know it is being picky but when you referred to steel brass you might have confused some. The nickel plated brass and standard brass cases are made of brass as you said. The steel cases are just that, steel. Great info on sizing for starters. Crimping was explained very well. And you saved the best for last. Get a good reloading manual.

    Just because you don't do something doesn't mean it's not a good thing to do. Neck sizing is done very often once the case is fire formed to the rifle.

    Great demonstrations and clear information! All how to reload videos should be done this way!

    Do you think you could damage a carbide sizing ring by camming the press over that hard onto carbide?

    • @russellkeeling4387
      @russellkeeling4387 Před rokem

      Yes you could. The carbide die should never come into contact with the shell holder.

    Wolf had boxer primed steel case at 1 time & it is reloadable just like brass , trimming was obviously a little harder to do but it resized just fine , only resized it 2 times as a test & was a success . Berdan steel cases are reloadable too but that’s way too much work .

    The best information in the is video was the last point. Get a good reloading manual and use it. As far as setting up the resizing die, view the Real Gunsmith’s video on the subject.

      I appreciate your comment and understand the resizing die setup part. I was just trying to keep it simple for beginners, and once they get the basics, they could venture on to new methods
