A beginners guide to ammunition reloading

A beginners guide to ammunition reloading

For many of us, shooting is the ultimate hobby; even those who train hard and “live by the sword” often find themselves out target shooting as a way to blow off steam, also known as trigger therapy.  For others, there’s a competitive angle- from local shooters to national competitors.  One thing nearly all of us has in common is liking our ammo to be either cheaper, or better (or both!).  Reloading advocates have long extolled the virtues of reloading as providing those exact benefits, among others.

Like any technical subject, reloading has a bit of a learning curve.  Some who want to get into it just never quite get over the hump of spending hundreds of dollars in equipment when you aren’t even sure if it’s the right stuff.  Today we’re covering a video by YouTube user Iraqveteran8888 entitled “Reloading: A Complete Beginner’s Guide to Handloading for your Rifle”.  This video is not only a step-by-step guide to reloading ammo but also contains lots of useful notes on the equipment used.
