New to reloading, i need a little help.

[Bc'z]

I'm not new, but Justin is.
He's a young Airforce Veteran that's paid a price.
He's just getting set up, and started shooting club matches with us.
I know he's got a Hornady press kit and manual.
I kicked in 1 brick of Federal 210
3.5# of RL26, and 200 scenar 136L's.
I will be helping mentor him in this, and have encouraged him to become a member of AS.

Justin is shooting a 6.5PRC, he's got brass and most everything he needs besides a comparitor, bullets and powder.
Any help you guys can offer up would greatly be appreciated.
Folks willing to help this young man can send me a PM, and I'll forward you Justin's phone # and address.
Thank you Brett

I’ll pay for his Gold membership!

Very, very generous of you Bc'z. I'll have to look about.

 

[Chiquita]

I will build and mail him a caliper holder/base.

Justin,
Thank you for your service.

Looking forward to having you join this wonderful group.

Guy's thank you for the overwhelming support.

If you have a list of items your still looking for I’d be happy to take a look and see what I have that may help.

Welcome to forum Justin.

Way to help Brett, good stuff!

I have an older rcbs press if he needs it.

Barry that would be great!!
It'll keep his Hornady clean if he's got a decapping/ bullet pulling station.
You probably met Justin last month at the club shoot.

 

[nmkid]

I am wondering...Would he like a Mighty Armory decapping die? I would be honored to send him one.

Joe that would be awesome!!

I can't thank everyone enough for your generosity and willingness to help this young man in his journey down the rabbit hole. Lol
I'll get with Justin towards the end of the week and see where he's at on everything.
My plan is to help him tune a load for both of our rifles together, giving us time on the press and range. Going over steps of loading and shooting in Hope's of teaching him what little I've learned from all of you.
Again I say thank you to everyone.
I'm truly blown away at everyone's willingness to help this young man.

Don't have a lot of extra, as I'm also new to reloading. If he's interested in doing any 6.5mm 147gr load development, I can kick in a couple hundred Hornady ELD-M 147gr bullets.

A list of what he could use might help. I'll see what I've got.
