Re: New to rifle reloading.
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: former naval person</div><div class="ubbcode-body">22lefty...you need a mentor. Try to find someone in your area who knows his/her way around the reloading bench and spend some quality time with him/her. Where are you? Fill out your profile and someone may jump in here to help. There are too many causes for your problem that we on the Hide here cannot surmise a correction. JMHO </div></div>
Sage advice here^^^^. I was taught reloading by a neighbor when I was 13yrs old. I was reloading for an old Krag rifle I had gotten from him and he told me, "Don't buy any ammo boy, you can come over and load all you want." There is no substitute for an apprentice learning from a master. The internet is full of information, but if it is your only teacher, you will never be a master. I see thread after thread where a plethora of answers may be given to a question, smattered with a great many opinions both good and bad. If you have a flesh and blood mentor observing your work he can spot a problem immediately.
