RE: 30-06 re-loading
If you use the Lee scales be very careful. I used one for a couple of years and I always said it could be off .9 grains if you are not careful. Sure enough I loaded some 22-250 with .9 gr too much and that caused a big problem.
Before I could afford scales, I used to use a large thimble to measure powder. Sometimes had to trim the thimble. It limited me to a few loads and powder types. But I was loading what I needed in good shape. With a 30-06 you might need something a little larger than a thinble. When you get your Lee dies, they sometimes come with a powder dipper.
BTW - I think the Lee pistol dies are the best you can get.
