[QUOTE="numbe, post: 873687, member: 73103"] Hello all, Been reading here a while but never registered. I've been shooting a .30-06 for about 5 years for whitetail and love the gun. I've was bit by the bug to buy a new Winchester M70 about 3 months ago and I couldn't find one in the caliber I wanted anywhere that wasn't used. (I wanted the new action) I finally settled on a Model 70 Super Grade in .300 WSM. I really wanted a 30-06 because of the versatility of the round and I don't do much that requires a magnum but the gun is simply unavailable over here. (NY) I topped the gun off with a Leupy VX-3L in 3.5-10x and I love the combo. The ammo is far from cheap, the "good" stuff is costing a little over 2.50 a round. If I were to start reloading it would be to get quality ammo and reuse my brass for a savings that will hopefully over time pay for itself. I'm just looking to be pointed in the right direction for reloading, I've been looking at the redding big boss 2 for a press but after that i'm pretty unsure what makes a quality setup. I'm trying to avoid buying something that will end up on ebay in a month or make the hobby more of a chore than it should be. [/QUOTE]
