Raw and wriggley Posted May 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Maybe I will have to jump into the deep end and just give it a go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motty Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Reloading is not difficult. There are plenty of videos to look at on Youtube on the subject. Read a good book on reloading. Job done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panoma1 Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 As long as you stick to a published formula using the correct components and watch a few "how to" vids......you will be able to load a useable cartridge.....you can worry about improving their appearance as you get more experienced!

Raw and wriggley Posted May 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 Ordered a mec today need to start looking at loads now if anyone can point me in the right direction going to start with a 28 gram fibre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panoma1 Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 To start you off Contact Clay Game reloaders, they sell tested loading formula, not expensive! Or Folkestone Engineering they are rumoured to be very helpful, Select your chosen load, starting with the case, primer and powder....but make sure all the components for the load are obtainable and available........then away you go!

Guest cookoff013 Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 I wouldn't buy a recipe from clay game . There is more than enough resources here to do that. I would certainly start with csb5, 4mm over powder card, 20-21mm fibre, 70mm hull, ask for pressure and speed data. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raw and wriggley Posted June 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 Cheers for all info I’m now up and running Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cookoff013 Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 what mec did you buy? the only add on that i recomend would be to purchase the "extended length crimp punch" after i installed it. the loader was better with european hulls and produced quality crimps. cook.
