[QUOTE="Omega, post: 5058960, member: 20060"] Equipment more than likely is ok, though completeness would be the issue as sometimes not everything is included in the gift. I agree on what some have said, post some pics of what you have or an inventory list and some of us will chime in on what we think. When I started in the mid 80's, I just followed the manual that came with my Lee Anniversary kit, which worked well for my 9mm and .270 win. Reloading is not difficult if you pay attention and follow the rules. It is relatively safe, but don't let anyone fool you, it can lead to catastrophic damage and or injuries if you make a mistake, specially when loading the powder. There are all kinds of videos out there and many give good tips on how to stay safe, and it wouldn't hurt to have an experienced reloader go through the steps with you, on your equipment, for the first few rounds. A few things that I would say are, always weigh your rifle charges, pistol I use a meter, but weigh one every now and then to make sure. Only have one type of powder out at a time, and empty your hopper after a reloading session. If you get interrupted, start over on the round you were working on, because not enough can be as bad as too much. [/QUOTE]
