    So hit up the last owner! Amanda (Gunworks) knows someone who does load development for people, but you first have to be realistic about the fact it won't happen for $20 and a box of beers.

    join a club like handloaders and learn how to do it, and get some experienced help.

    and they have a range so you can go as a member and use the facilities

    whats the legality around reloading for monetary gain? I would be happy to do it, and I know several people who have asked me to do some for them, could be a nice little sideline...

    Better to let them borrow your gear (at your place) and "supervise" them doing the "actual" reloading I think. Just in case

    Gunworks have a reloading room you can use if you buy the components from them.
