its a blast i cant think of much else in hunting (at least for me) than you killing an animal with a load you worked up and made accurate yourself, i really like it when some one else shoots one of my rifles with my loads and kills something and says something like man that was awesome, it was like that deer was struck by lightning makes a guy feel like he accomplished something. just remember to be careful and very anal about everything that way you dont miss anything its serious as much as it is fun too.

Reloading for me is very rewarding.  Putting it together yourself and see the results of doing a precise job.  Enjoy your new equipement.

I'm glad you received the press, I know it isn't much, but hopefully it will "kick' start you into reloading.  As others have said, it is great fun and gives one a sense of self accomplishment.  Theres tons of books out there to get you started, your local library might even have some info for you.  As always the people here a wealth of knowledge and should be able to answer almost any questions you have reguarding this topic.

Cheese, beer, brats, tipping cows all of the finer things in life, not to mention no conceal carry and some of the highest taxes in the country.  I'm so proud!
