    Just took a look in the Natchez catalog and they have it listed, I imagine Midway will have it as well. The other, and probably cheaper, solution is to load your own.

    It's not difficult but theres a lot more to it than stuffing primer, powder and a bullet into a case and pulling the trigger. Really, there is only two ways to get started. First, get someone with many years experience to instruct and supervise you until THEY are satisfied you can go about it safely on you're own. This is the method i highly recommend. Second, if no one is available to give instruction get a reloading manual and read, re-read and read again the introduction chapter and follow the instructions to the letter. The reloading supply companies carry press kits that contain most all the basic tools you'll need to get started. There's a few things you'll have to aquire seperatly like dies and a few other cartridge specific items. As to primers, powder and bullets use exactly the brand/type that whatever loading manual you get recommends. If you decide to go it on your own and are unclear on any of the steps get advice on what to do before you do anything. Sierra, Hornady and Nosler manuals all have a reloading support hotline you can call to get professional answers to any questions that may come up.
