thank youI started with the Lyman. Has been good for everything I reload including 9mm, 223, 45Colt, 308, and 30/30. Bullet and powder mfgs will also provide data. Here are some free older manuals that can be good too. Good luck

no not a hunter really more just looking to be able to load for cost and ability to load when you cant find ammo. also would like to get into longer distances and would like to be able to load for accuracy with the 308.One more thing: a lot of it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to get the best hunting ammo? Do you want better control over ammo supply? Are you trying to reduce cost to a minimum to keep up a healthy competition calendar? Do you own guns in unusual cartridges? With .30-30 and .308 (you didn't say 7.62 NATO), my bet is you're looking for hunting ammo. In that case, you'd probably want to start with component manufactures who make bullets you like.

No need to replicate mil spec ammo.In that case, I'd start with looking into data to replicate USGI 7.62 NATO match cartridges like M118 and M852. Those are good places to start.
Best thing I can tell you is dont waste a lot of time at the bench vs actual practice to get better.no not a hunter really more just looking to be able to load for cost and ability to load when you cant find ammo. also would like to get into longer distances and would like to be able to load for accuracy with the 308.
