Just found this forum. I am also just starting to reload. I reloaded several years ago with my brother in law but he did majority of the set up.
I have:
Lee reloader
9mm die
38/357 die
powder loader on top of die
blue dot powder
hand primer
some brass
9mm bullets

My question is are there any sites or charts that I can download to follow as far as amount of powder, etc?
Any other advice?

Thanks in advance

What you really need to do is get a reloading manual. better yet more than one.

As your using the Lee Loader I would suggest one of those be, Lee's "Modern Reloading". You can get data at most powder mfg. web sites for the powders that particular manufacture produces or sells. Start with Hodgdon. as the offer more than Hodgdon powders.

WELCOME! to TFL
I second what rwilson452 says about gettin manuals. One is never enough, and you should read them cover to cover before you start

Look at the Alliant site:

Other powder distibutors with data
www.accuratepowder.com

www.goexpowder.com
www.hodgdon.com
