Well decrimping is 5 times quicker than using the resizing die at the same time.
Plenty to read on the resizing operation it seems.

Do you mean de-capping?

I haven't got as far as buying a manual, I've been looking at various websites for load data, reading on here, reading the bits that came with the loading equipment (it's all Lee so far)
Are you able to suggest a manual I should buy or peruse online?
I'm currently laid up with a broken leg amongst other injuries so getting powder and primers are going to be the sticking point unless i pay the horrendous delivery charges.

The first thing you need when you start handloading is good manual that explains the basics as well as giving load data.
The only one to avoid is the Lee as it is centred around a Lee "system" a more generic manual is better I always recommend the Lyman as being one of the best out there when it comes to handloading instruction.

The Lyman manual is the one I would recommend for any one starting out. I got a copy from pukkabundhooks.
