What is a bullet reloader?

A reloader is called a press. There are single stage presses and progressive presses. You must use a set of dies for each caliber you want to reload. In each set of dies there are 2 or 3 dies. Each cartridge you reload must be processed with each die. A single stage has room for 1 die at a time, so each case is processed with one die, then the die is changed and processed with the next die. A progressive press has space for many dies, so it processes the case with all of the dies each time. Progressive presses are much faster but also more expensive.

You can purchase reloading brass from companies like www.ammobulldog.com

What is the best reloader for beginners?

My first reloader was a Lee turret press, I later moved on but I've never regreted having a Lee (which I still use for odd jobs). They tend to be a lot less expensive and, especially for a beginner, work just as well.


Does it matter what bullet you use with certain powders - Like if i use a 200g cowboy load do I have to use 200g suggested powders?

Yes. You should have a loading data handbook, it will show amounts of different powders for different bullets. Start with the lowest, and work up. You cannot disregard the bullet weight when selecting powder charges. Being too light can be just as bad as being overloaded. If you are a novice reloader, strongly suggest getting a copy of "The ABC's of Reloading". Available in paperback, excellent guide.


Can you neck down a bullet casing so it can hold a different size of bullet and still shoot it from the same gun?

Rather silly question. You could, but you wouldn't accomplish anything except maybe hurting yourself. Barrels and bullets are matched in sized for a reason...so the bullet makes contact with the rifling to achieve spin which stabilizes the bullet when fired. The bullet must also form a "seal" in the barrel so that the gas from the burning propellant will push the bullet out of the barrel to achieve proper velocity. Why in the world would you ever even consider that? the .243 Winchester is a necked-down .308 Winchester, but you shoot it from a rifle chambered for .243. If you want to shoot a smaller bullet out of a particular rifle, you get a smaller grain weight of bullet. This will give you higher velocity but lower impact energy and lower felt recoil. As a side note, there is ammunition that uses plastic sabot's to allow a shooter to fire sub-caliber ammunition in a rifle. This is factory loaded ammo not basement reloader stuff. It was marketed under the "Accelerator" name. The 30-06 ammo used a 55 grain .223 bullet and achieved ridiculous velocities of over 4000fps.
