[QUOTE="Dgd6mm, post: 1138684, member: 12044"] I would buy a Hodgdon Annual reloading book, more of a thick magazine for it is paperback. I would choose a bullet weight or two, probably 155 for starting out and probably 185 for later at longer ranges. Your 1-12 may easily shoot a heavier then 185. Take a look at Nosler Custom Competition bullets to start with, they are less expensive and shoot good, remember I said good, not best. If you can afford it skip them and go to Bergers. I'd personally go cheaper till I gained experience in loading and shooting technique. Lapua brass is excellent, make sure you set your dies up properly so as you aew not over working your brass. I could go on and on which may end up with to much info at once. Also the powder you have will be ok to start but you have already been suggested to change ang I second that for the same reasons.
