Hello everyone. I am new to this site. I have a couple questions and from what I have been reading a lot of you are quite knowledgeable about shooting and all that it entails.
Please, forgive my ignorance. I have been shooting guns since I was 8 yrs old but not long-range, precision type shooting. So, here goes...
I am in the process of buying several rifles of various calibers. mostly smaller, fast varmint type calibers. 17s, 204, 220, 6BR etc... to add to my collection (hoping my young son will enjoy shooting as much as I do once he is old enough) I want to get into doing my own reloads. any particular starting point to learn how to do this, how to actually start from scratch? any site that you recommend as a starting point?
And, can anyone give me any advice as to how best to choose a particular barrel for different rifles regarding length and twist? there seems to be an infinite number of choices. any advice is welcome. I am just about to begin my journey into long range shooting, bench shooting and would like to start out doing things the right way.
Thanks in advance for any help on these things. and please feel free to offer any advice that any of you think would be helpful or important.
thanks again
