Lots of good info here, and as you've already figured out, everyone will help as much as we can. I found the best thing for me was to establish a strict routine when loading. ALWAYS do everything in the same order, the same way. That allows you to ensure that you don't under/over charge a case, or try to press a primer in a case that's already primed.

Do you have a friend or neighbor who reloads who can walk through it with you a few times? Every reloader I know is always willing to help a newbie get started.

I use jacketed, and buy my bullets from Precision Delta. I've found their prices to be very good, and they include shipping (your mail carrier will HATE you - give a good tip at Christmas! )

I've found reloading to be very relaxing and therapeutic - I think you'll enjoy it. Please feel free to post questions as the come up.

ETA: I missed your last post - sorry to hear that it won't work out for you. If you lived closer I'd have you over for reloading sessions (that usually involve some leather cutting...)

Best wishes and prayers for you...
