Guys, I'd like to solicit some guidance from the brain trust. I am about to start the process of learning to reload. My primary focus will be low volume high quality precision rifle ammunition, primarily 300 Win Mag. The cost factor is the primary motivator. Ammo loaded with the bullets I want to shoot is really expensive.
With that being said, I need some advice on equipment and methods. I'd like to start purchasing the bare minimum equipment needed to churn out very high quality rifle ammo.
PRESS: I am guessing that a hand press is out? Should I be looking for a single stage press? If so, what makes a good one, and what makes a crappy one?
POWDER: once again, slow and accurate beats speed for my application. What's the cheapest, most precise way to achieve that?
BRASS PREP: case trimming, resizing, seating primers... what's the cheapest, most precise way to achieve this part?
