Angel,

Go to any shop that sells powder. There should be free manuals there from IMR, Alliant, and DuPont. They will list the hulls by gauge and the loads. New manuals show pressure in psi. Choose the load you want, and go for it just like it is written and you cannot go wrong.

You will enjoy reloading, it is relaxing, until you are loading at midnight for the next day's hunt as I often find myself doing.

Or you can stay right at home and get the recipes for free off the powder company web sites.

I agree with Pete. This is good sound advice. Have fun Angel. A whole new world is about to open up for you. I enjoy reloading.
