I will be using a Lee Loadmaster Progressive Press. I am seeing .224? I have been told that these are the rounds I need to get. I have been looking at the Lee product dies and plates that I will need on Midway. I am wanting to build up a personal surplus of rounds and am wondering if those rounds would be reliable in a "bad situation" as opposed to factory produced ammunition. That being asked I am also looking at powder and primers. Will I need "small rifle primers"?
1.) What powder should I look at.
2.) What primers should I look at.
3.) What brass should I look at.
4.) What bullets should I look at.
I have used 5.56 in deployment and training. I am sure some of it was reloaded (Police Your Brass as those of us have heard). I am firing it from my Colt 1 in 7 twist and I want to use a 55 to 60 grain projectile. I will not be firing at targets more than 300 yards.
Any thoughts will be appreciated.
