I’m not new to shooting or the 450 BM platform. I have a Encore, a AR I built and a Turk Mauser I converted into 450 BM. I’ve had hit and miss performance with the Hornady factory pills. I picked up a complete reloading kit (minus 450 BM dies/powder/bullets) with a Weatherby this weekend. The press is a RCBS rock chucker. The manual is the Lyman 49th edition not sure which print - whichever it is pre 450 BM cool. I have a couple of hundred once fired Hornady brass. A couple of questions:
- Any manual recommendations?
- I don’t want to cheap out on the dies, any recommendations based on the press?
- I’ve never shot Black butterfly, but I’ve heard great reviews. I don’t want to mess with the Hornady line of bullets. Any recommendations for deer hunting? Barnes _____ is usually pretty good stuff lol.
