Covers the whole process from beginning to end.

I have the 49th. Which was the first thing I bought for reloading, even before a press or components.

Re-read through all the sections on die adjustment to properly fit your cases to your chamber.
That's the most troubling thing about rifle cases compared to straight-wall handgun cases.

Case gauge? Calipers?
Dies?
Yes there will be crimped pockets to deal with.
Yes the more expensive dies work better.
De capp first. Seperate the hard ones vs the easy ones. The easy ones, primers that pop out will probably have no crimp. The crimped ones I seperate to deal with later.
Any brass that has sealer is crimped.
Mighty armory for the decapper. Pins are very strong.
I chamfer inside and outside of the neck, inside being more important.
H335, blc2, are good powders.
North east reload had the best prices for 223/55/62s. Think I paid 90 bucks per 1k.
Check calguns, cast boolits, arfcom,or 24hr campfire might have some used dies?
Best of luck.
