Bapple had a great thread on this topic here this week. It has links to his youtube clips. Very infomative.

pdubya,
The Lee hand press is a good tool, but it will limit what you can do. I'd suggest a more flexible press, such as a Lee turret press. See the links Nimble listed. I've got a lengthy post on page 1 of the first link.

Thanks guys.

Yea, check out my thread in the FAQ.

I'm planning on adding in extra steps for rifle once I order some .223 bullets. I'll post those in the same thread once I place an order and they come in.

That sounds great.I shoot a fair amount and would like to go ahead and load my own ammo.I also like "off the wall" calibers that ammo is sometimes hard to find.
