hello, I'm looking for some advice on reloading for 338 lapua. i currently only reload for 45 acp, and have a lee pro 1000 and a handheld lee press.
I'm looking for a solid, but affordable single stage press & dies. I have been looking at the RCBS gear. Regarding the dies, I see that there are neck dies, and full length dies. do i need both? I'm assuming that i neck size only until after a few loadings and would possibly need to full length resize at some point.
the brass i currently have is hornady, although I'm looking to add some lapua brass in the future. I'm considering using 300 gr sierra match kings, h1000 powder, and not sure on which primers should be used.
any recommendations on a case trimmer, and a powder measure? any other gear i will need?
I'm new to reloading rifle cartridges and and input would be appreciated. these will be shot out of my savage FCP HS at long range.
Thanks in advance!
