Reload assistance...

[berger]

I was wondering if there is anyone in the Ottawa area that might be willing to give a re-load session to this rookie? With the recent issues with 7.62 and other milsurp ammo, I would like to reload, but I would like some guidance.

Anyone willing? :)

If you can't find someone to walk you through it you might try this link:

YouTube - An Entertaining Overview of the Hand Loading Process (http://youtube.com/watch?v=383KkWOpzHQ&feature=related)

It's a video of a fellow just going through all of the steps involved in loading a single spent cartridge into a full one.

He stresses that it isn't an instructional video, but it does serve to show the actual mechanical process which is helpfull for demystifying the process.

You'll find a few other videos as well, on the same page as that one. If you go over a few you should get a good idea of the sort of equiptment involved. Also, if you were to buy a set of LEE dies, they've got a pretty good walk-through manual included in them.

Check out the MILSURPS.COM YouTube Video Forum (click here) (http://www.milsurps.com/yt.php?).

There's currently 35 videos there in the Ammunition and Reloading (click here) (http://www.milsurps.com/yt.php?playlist=5) public playlist, including the one Skippy mentions.

I notice there's several oriented to the beginner reloader, so it may be a good place to start.
