Whitecloud the main thing is dont be afraid to ask ?'s...no matter how dumb ya think they may be. This is a heckuva place to learn the right way..many many years of experience on this board. I am just getting started as well...I have saved brass for the last 10 years though. Another thing to remember is if ya wanna buy something only once ya may have to pay a little extra but in the end you'll save.
