Default reloading mentor

Is there someone that would be kind enough to show me and let me try reloading before I go and buy hundreds of dollars in gear just to realize I don't like it.

I have 30-06 and .223 brass and but nothing else, would be great if you reload in any of these 2 caliber

Located in Calgary, available in the afternoon to early evening.

Looking for someone with experience please

I know nothing is better than being shown in person BUT......look at the very top in this section at the sticky posts....there is a hand loading for beginners thread that would be a great place for you to start.

Default both calibres

I load both of those calibres but since signing a contract with H & R Block a couple weeks ago I wont be doing any amount of reloading until after tax season April 30th.

at first i would just go to the gun store and pick one of the fellas brains that was there working who was very knowledgeable on reloading. i usually had to buy another tool anyhow. after you buy the basics , then youll need a bunch of minor tools.

it was b4 i knew of this site and b4i really knew utube could help out.

I'm in NE Calgary and would be willing to let someone take a test run on my equipment. I reload for .30-06, but not .223 though.
