    .270 reloads

    I know nothing about reloads at all, but was wondering does anyone do them for other people. I have a bit of brass at home and wondering if anyone would do a load for me and for how much?

    Thanks

    50-100, pending price etc....I am not a range shooter and only shoot for meat. So a basic load which shoots well is all I'm after. Thanks

    Lee Loader 270 Win - Lee Precision

    All you need is this, plus a mallet, hard block of wood, and the components. Perfectly adequate for hunting ammo.

    Sounds easy but what do I need to know? Should I just youtube it and go from there or is there someone who can help me pursue this cheaper option?

    If you would like to come round home I'll show you how to reload them and then you can reload your own.

    I have some powder, primers and 140gr projectiles that you can use to begin with.

    Cheers

    Reloading your own and then going out and bowling an animal with your reloaded ammo is quite exciting.

    Happy to help.

    Be aware that after just one Reloading Session you may find you develop a lifetime of addiction.

    Cheers

    Don't forget to drop off your empty cases and I'll run them through the tumbler if you want.

    Cheers
