    1st of all, save cash and read an online PDF of Richard Lee's Modern Reloading: http://marvinstuart.com/firearm/Manu...%20-%20ocr.pdf

    Second, thoroughly digest said manual.

    Third, buy a Lee Loader. Bear in mind these will not full length resize bottleneck rifle cartridges, but you will get one or two more bangs out of a spent cartridge from the same rifle.

    Fourth, practise. This is the man himself (Richard Lee, RIP) loading up 30-06 on the Lee loader:



    Bear in mind that volume does not change so long as density is constant, but weight (which is subject to gravity, not a universal force) does vary by an infinitesimal amount.

    If bullets shoot accurate, deer die fast and rifle go boom every time trigger is pulled, be happy!

    DO NOT OVERTHINK IT
