My advise from a newbie reloader as well.......well to rifle anyway.........been loading shotgun for years! Take your time. I reload shotgun to shoot clays. 100/week minimum. I wont shoot that many rifle in a month til spring. My rifle loading now is for varmits. Eventually for competition I hope! I load about 40-60 per hour on a single stage, not counting the brass cleaning and prep. It's alot of fun and I really enjoy it. I don't know if you save any money, you just shoot more in the long run!
