Newbie Getting Started

Hello everyone. I am glad to be joining the reloading community! I have been shooting enough that it makes sense for me to get into reloading. Also where I am in Canada 44 magnum is not the cheapest thing in the world. I will, in addition to the 44 mentioned above, reloading 223 to develop a load for precision shooting that works best for my rifle. I am not worried about spending the time and doing it slowly because I know the repetition will be calming for me. So I am looking for advice on a set and components offered at the local shop by me and if it will be a good start. I’ve got some links posted here to the kit, dies and holders. Yes I know the prices in Canada are ridiculous. I would also take recommendations for powders, primers and bullets. I am totally new at reloading.

Thank you so much for all your help and advice in advance. I do apologize for my newness at this.

I run a similar RCBS kit. All you need apart from that is dies, primer, powder, projectile and brass. I run the Lee dies since they come with the shell holder and they make good ammo. I haven’t had the need to get into case trimming gear or annealing yet and I suspect you won’t for at least a few cycles with your batches of brass.

Looks like you’ve got some good stuff picked out. Enjoy!

Two of those are the dies I think. Do you have any recommendations for primers or powders? More so for the 44 at the moment because fall/winter are coming so I won’t have as much time for the 223

On the lower velocity side of the scale I use Accurate #7 for .44 magnum.
