Try Frank at http://www.yorkshireschoolofreloading.co.uk/ even if he's too far away, give him a bell and see if he knows of anyone nearer to you.
BASC also run courses from time to time.
The BDS branch I'm in occasionally holds a 'Reloading Evening' which is more a general discussion than training and I'm sure other BDS branches and other organisations do similar things in the winter months.
It does continue to surprise me how little formal training goes on in the field we are in. 95% of the training I've been given to date has come from ex-military folk.

Andy Allwood in Bracknell used to do free reloading courses when you buy the gear from him, worth a call especially if you need anything.

I have been running reloading courses at Dauntsey guns n Wiltshire but for the foreseeable future the actual venue (reloading classroom) has been overtaken by the expanding business needs of the shop itself.

I can give you a full days in-depth reloading tuition and after-care advice if we can agree a location to conduct the training...I have all the necessary equipment if you don't have your own.

PM me if you would like details.

How much would something like that at the shop have cost?
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Guns dont kill people. Dads with pretty Daughters do...!
