Introduction to Reloading: Part 1 - Component Selection and Planning

The first of a series of videos covering the basics of reloading. We're using the 9mm cartridge as an example because it's an easy cartridge to reload. Some steps are not needed for the 9mm but the things we are skipping are mentioned for completeness.

We'll be covering:
- Types of reloading data and manuals
- How to interpret the data and extract information not explicitly stated
- Shortcomings of reloading manuals
- Avoiding pitfalls
- Bullet selection between the four main types of bullets
- Pros and cons of each bullet type
- Powder selection
- A deep dive into burn rates and pressures
- Powder shape and how it effects your reloading
- Safety, decisions that will help mitigate mistakes
- Load workup planning and documentation
- Costs
