Getting good at ANY range takes practice and trigger time. While the Lee "combo kit" is not the Cadillac of reloading kits. if you take your time and follow the directions, you should be able to find a load that is "just right" for your rifle in short order.

Reloading typically does not "save" you money. It just allows you to shoot more with the money you have. And there is a certain amount of personal satisfaction when you are able to connect with a target, or a game animal, with a round that you loaded yourself...
