Munir, I agree with Patrick, start with a straight case, like a 40, 45, 9mm, 38, 357, etc.

Bottle neck, exsp the 357Sig, are very fussy about bullet seating. If you don't get it right the recoil of firing can drive the bullet of the rounds still in the clip back into the case. If this happens, real bad things can follow, like KB!

Your stright wall cases when resized are actually sized with a ID smaller (from mouth to base) than the bullet OD. Thus when you seat the bullet it isn't going anywhere.

Just get yourself a good reloading manual & follow the directions exactly. You'll be reloading like a pro in no time. BTW, when you select your caliber, this is a great place to find out what powder, bullets, primers, & cases people like so that you don't have to spend a lot of money sorting through all the options.

One other thought, at all the ranges I have ever been to, they do not allow any reloads to be used in their rental guns. So you may not need to get in a real big hurry.
