[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3335213, member: 15054"] Neighbor has a son that wanted to get into reloading and has been reading all about it and looking at all the tools needed and said to his dad it would be very costly to get into reloading. I brought him over to the house and ran him through a very basic reloading session. Took 3 fired .223 cases since he has a .223. First up is to Inspect them.. One had a crack in the neck. Nice he got to see that. These were given to me. Next up 0000 steel wool to the outside of the case and spinning bore brush in a drill ran through the inside of the case. Wipe them off. Lube case. Set up the resizing die and explain what the deprimer pin is. Resize case. Wipe off lube. Brush inside neck again and clean with Q tip. Chamfer primer pocket Measure OAL chamfer case mouth clean inside again with Q tip. Seat primer .. weigh powder on a beam scale.. trickle into the case through a funnel. Set up bullet seating die.. seat bullet .. measure AOL. Done. His reply after it was all done was. That was easy! Yep. He said what he read on many forums made it out to be very difficult. I told him you can do many more things like annealing and pin cleaning etc etc. Looking for that last little bit of accuracy. [/QUOTE]
