Anyone in Southern NOVA have some time and a lot of patience to help out someone who has been toying with the idea for a while now get acclimated?

I noticed I just missed the reloading group meet & greet which would have been nice.

I don't shoot anywhere near as often as I'd like so I'm not looking for a high volume set up, just something I can accumulate some brass and do a batch every now and then.  Space is also extremely limited.  

I used to do B&W developing and thought the initial startup was confusing back then...damn, at least that was only 1 film size.  I've looked at some of the single stage starter kits and can't decide because I don't understand enough to know what to look for, what would be better for expansion later, etc...  

I would have posted this in reloading, but wanted to see if any of the local guys could help first.

I used to teach the reloading class (pistol calibers) at Shooters Paradise. I can gove you a hand with reloading handgun ammo.  I live in a condo so I understand your  concerns about space.  Please contact me by PM.

I could help.  I live in Kingstowne.  Right now I only do pistol (.45) but I've reloaded 9mm, 38, 45, .308, and .223 before.  Luckily I have a little bit more room as I reload in a 2 car garage.

Talked to CBR and have a short term plan for getting educated and a hardware direction.

Signed up for the reloaders group and noted interest in the group buy thread.

More stupid questions to come!  Stay tuned!

Thanks guys.
