[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 1109126, member: 39764"] In reality, no. Headspacing, Ogive and Meplats and pointing are all later on. Get a good manual for the specific bullets you use, ie: Sierra or Hornady or Berger or Speer or Lapua or whatever and follow the book's recommended loads, lengths and specifications. Thats the best way to start and the cheapest. Always load halfway between maximum and minimum recommended loads, never start at a maximum load. Bad things can and will happen...to you. Back when I started handloading, arms manufacturers didn't put those cross drilled holes in the receiver. They are there for when you inadvertently overload a round. They let the 'fire' out without the fire consuming your face or worse, a nice safety touch on a modern firearm. [/QUOTE]
