I have never used the Lee classic loader. However, You will need to have a way to measure and
Trim your cases, You NEED to get a Good Reloading book and read it and You
need a good powder scale.
No one can Give you the perfect
Recipe load because every rifle is not the same. Always reduce the load you are given and work back up.
You will be looking at your fired brass for signs of pressure
And stress. You kinda need to know what you are look'en for. A good manual will have picture of stressed
Brass and show you comparison photos. The ladder test is a progression of loadings, after you have a starting load,
You will work your load up .3 to .5 grains at a time while looking for accuracy and signs of pressure.
(Example)..If you have a rifle with what is called a tight chamber and you were to shoot a load that was
Tailored to a loose chamber you could/would end up with a stuck bolt, blown primer or worse..
You can never have too many books
