    Question Reloading for a 243 400m bunnies

    So after watching Gimps reloading video I have decided I am going to work up a 400m rabbit load. I have never reloaded before but I have done some research and now am a little more informed.
    So I reckon I need a press, some dies and a powder measure. Now that sums up what I know. Is there a reloading kit that will do the job. I expect to shoot maybe 100 rounds a month. Is there someone in Taupo that can show me the ropes?
    As far as projectiles are concerned I have a ruger haweye 1:9 twist 16.5" barrel. From what i have read a 65-80gn projectile seems to do the business.
    It would be great if one of the more experienced guys could do a sticky on reloading 101
