Well done Mike357,
Pretty soon the reloading will take on a life of it's own, if it has not already.
As others on here have said before it becomes a hobby that you very likely will spend more money and time on than the actual shooting.
It is worth it.

Well done on the reloading Mike, it is strangely satisfying to look at a couple of full load trays you have built yourself. Can you post up a couple of pictures of your loading system?

Currently using a Winchester 94AE which is not bad but very tempremental when feeding rounds. Distances are currently 25yds but comps may move to 50yds at some clubs. Also want to try full mag loads at 100yds too for a laff!
I've hijacked a friends reloading set up for now and he has very kindly given me a key for his garage. I will set my gear up firstly on a temp basis in the kitchen and then in my office when I replace the desk with 5m of beech block worktop. Cant decide whether to go for std height or higher "draughtsman" style!

Decide if you are going to sit or stand and then build accordingly. I am quite tall so my benching is quite high and designed for me to work at from a stool however I find myself standing for a lot of the work.
