LowBoost

Thanks SC Taylor. I am in Cypress. I have been once to Siloh and PSC for the IDPA side of it and got hooked. I have watched tons of videos, but I guess one is never satisfied until a few hands-on attempts. I will appreciate your time if you could show me! I'm sure we can work something out to reward you.

Long story short, family members, wife and I got hooked after attending / practicing IDPA. I have the time and certainly a real interest in learning. I am patient, extremely detail oriented (Everyone says I am OCD), and like to read a lot. I am pretty much set to start off with a Dillon S1050. Not in a hurry, but just like many, I know I will upgrade sooner than later and also add a Mr. Bulletfeeder. I will only reload 9mm and eventually .223/5.56mm. While I wait to find a local mentor, I would like to read as many books and watch videos. This being said, I have done my homework and read a lot reviews about books, but there a lot of contradictions in the reviews. Would you be so kind to point me to the correct books I should get to start off? I believe the one book everyone agrees with is "The ABCs Of Reloading: The Definitive Guide for Novice to Expert" by Rodney James. Is this OK? What about other books that explains in detail what I need to do/expect and more advanced ones? Thanks

Newbie to the forums although I have been lurking for a while. Now that I have a little extra time, IDPA bug bit me and would like to start reloading. This being said, besides the Dillon reloading machine videos, what's a good place to start? Looking for books, videos to get and hopefully find a local mentor in the area.
