FWIW, I should have clarified #2 above to reflect: "The first (and only) purchase I've made towards beginning to reload is a book,,,,,,,,"

Have not decided on bullet grain or powder yet, (or even what type of reloading equipment,,,,) Currently comparing a few of the recipe's in Lyman's to what components are readily available locally, but will most likely lean towards a somewhat 'middle-lower' bullet weight as I'm working with 1:9 twist at short range.

Finite accuracy one way or the other isn't a HUGE 'be all/tell all' concern to me at this point as again, the 'nut behind the butt' has some work to do before I can begin to delve into the finer points,,, For now, just contemplating beginning to reload and what 'initial direction' I may take regarding certain aspects,,,

Thanks,
