I was going through my grandfather's collection of junk (he passed away last year), and I found a crate full of M-1 Garand clips full of spent 1959 Match casings, and some 1944 Lake city brass. Litterally thousands of empty rounds. I've been reloading pistol ammo for a long time, but haven't been able to accumulate enough rifle brass to make it worth while. Now I have plenty.
Can anyone direct me as to any different steps to take or stuff to order to start reloading the '06? I have a Dillon RL 550b. I haven't any case trimming equipment, or polishing stuff. Do I need it?
