I've loaded an unbelievable number of metallic cartridges for over 50 years but haven't loaded shotshells for at least 40 years and then it was on an old Texan loader. Plain and simple, I know what I don't know so please tell me anything you can to help. Young man here wants to start loading shotshells on a budget and came to me for advice. Will this Lee get him started or should he put together a bit more money and get something better. If he takes to this like I think he will I would think he will find a way to get the biggest and baddest someday but he needs to learn the basics first. I have a bunch of powder and even some primers and shot to donate and will work with him until he has a handle on things and I don't think that will take long. Thanks for any advice to help him on his future addictive journey.
