Holy Black or new fangled "smokeless"?

Either way, take your time, get into a rythm and watch you charges, primer seating and over all length.... Without more info, not much else I can suggest.

If you are new to reloading I highly recommend getting Dr. Richard Lee's book: Modern Reloading. It gives you step by step loading instructions including pictures, and explains WHY you do some of the things you do when reloading...it also can serve as your first loading manual, as it has load data.

I load 45lc with 205gr rnfp from BearCreek. It is a moly bullet. If you want my data, drop me an email/pm
