Hello!
I'm new to this forum but after reading threads for about an hour, this seems like a good place to find some information!
I shoot about 10-15 boxes of 1oz. 8 shot 12ga shells per week. Trying to practice to get into competitive shooting. This is starting to get really expensive!! I've been looking into reloading and have determined the shot is so expensive, you can't really save much money reloading 12ga shells as opposed to buying cheap federal boxes.
So I found lead shot makers and I'm looking into getting one. But after watching youtube videos, all these people have insane looking setups for shot making (pumps, coolers etc)
My question is, how should I get started into shot making? What equipment would I need? What kind of lead(alloy, %tin etc)? Where would I get a hold of this lead?
The last few weeks I've been saving my hulls. I've got like a thousand cheap Federal hulls and a few hundred Winchester AA hulls
Any help getting me started into reloading these shells would be great! Thanks in advance!
