Is this a good book for beginners who have never reloaded ?

Yes it is a good book for the beginner. I would also recommend that you get some of the other reloading manuals that are available (Hornady, Nosler, etc.) for comparison purposes. I don't know of any experienced reloader who relies on only one data resource.

Yes, the Lyman book for reloading is an excellent book for the beginner who is about to start reloading. I would recommend it as a reference book for the shelf. I refer to mine all the time.

I asked the same question and people told me to get it. I have learned that the load info is spot on but the particular loads assume that you are using a particular Lyman bullet mold for the length and dimensions. I use Lee molds. The first part of the book is good at explaining the tools, components, how to crimp, etc. This is valuable for beginners as well as experienced loaders.

I was a beginner when I purchased this book on recommendation and it was very easy to understand. It's only weakness is that it is a hard copy and will not update as new loads are added. Good luck

Yes! I find it helpful and not too detailed so beginners can reload without too much problems. Like anything of this nature you have to be careful and always check what you have done and are doing.

Yes I am pretty sure it does have a tutorial for game mechanics. This is a great game! I finished it in a couple days. :)

There is no straight answer for this except maybe that is definitely not for beginners. I think the box says it is skill level 3 out of 5. If you have had any prior experience, this shouldn't be too difficult until you get to the rigging, which is fairly complex. The decks come in three pieces for each one and can be a bit tricky. This is a classic that almost anyone that builds model sailing ships ends up doing. You can easily take it to a level 5 by doing modifications, but straight out of the box, as I said, you should have built one or two models before this. A good one to learn from is the Revell Bounty in the same scale. A little less complex to build and to rig. Hope this helped.

They have a beginning tutorial. And they is a button you can click and it tells you more details(you can check it anytime in the game)

It won't reload anything straight out of the box. You will need 9mm shell plate, dies, bullet feeding die/powder expander (these two come together) and small pistol case feeder. After that you can load about 100+ bullets in 10 minutes and that's taking it medium to slow speed. Once you're up and running you can push it faster. If you shoot a lot, it's well worth it because after about 1500 rounds at current bargain prices, you break even on 9mm rounds and start saving. Plus the ammo is higher quality and can be customized. I've never regretted the purchase for a second.

Perfect kit for the beginner because it does everything the single stage press will do and gives you room to easily grow and expand. I'm pretty sure there were a few things I bought extra but I'm trying to remember what they were. I think there was an extension I bought for the auto powder part. I also bought an extra turret so I could have one setup for 5.56 and one for 9mm. A digital scale is a good idea. The only other thing I can recommend is an additional reloading manual. I bought the Hornady manual. Good luck and have fun!

I would say it's for anyone who wants to learn the game.....an experienced player would not prefer it

I think it would be fun to use this as a beginner. you can play with the different colors and see what you do and don't like. I do suggest buying eye primer though. some of the colors are a little harder to work with than others but eye primer will make it allot easier.

Yes! This kit is very good for beginners. I'm a beginner as well and it worked great!

I haven't done these, but I can say that the instructions for fliers and mailings look very simple, intuitive--unlike their publishing a book instructions. You import your graphics and they have many formats for fliers, in particular. I happened across them while stumbling through. I have the book and its not nearly as helpful as the tutorials- check them out and you will see.

For sure! I had never played an RPG or DM'd a game, and I DM'd the Beginners game for my group of friends (only one of them had ever played an RPG before). It's really easy to learn and the adventure that comes with the beginners set is spelled out for a DM and makes it very easy. We had a lot of fun! BTW, there is also an additional adventure called "Long Arm of the Hutt" that continues right after the beginners box adventure, and it's available for free download from FFG's site. I'm just about to finish that adventure, to get through both of them took 7 2 hour play sessions, so you'll be set for quite awhile! For sure!

That I'm unsure of I have been remodeling my house so I haven't had much time to read about it. I know lyman has a very in depth reloading manual that covers almost everything from bullet weight to vital statistics of each and every powder, bullet, you name it!

Only if you need the dice, some sample characters, or help to understand the rules. The beginner set comes with dice, sample characters, and explains step by step how to play.

It's a decent programming primer. If you want to learn more about code in general, check out CodeAcademy.com.(No, I don't work for them. :)

The most important item you should have is quality reloading manuals, preferably several. I highly recommend "The ABC's of Reloading" and "Lyman's 49th Edition", as well as various ones from bullet and powder manufacturers. For a wealth of information offered cheerfully by many experienced reloaders, join the FaceBook group "Reloading 101: Learning The Art". "Dumb" questions are welcomed and rudeness is not tolerated by the moderators.

In my opinion, it is perfect for beginners. It allows you to get your feet wet without a serious financial obligation. I own a larger tablet but always find myself using the smaller one simply because I have small hands and the smaller tablet requires a smaller range of hand motion-something many people might not remember to consider when purchasing a tablet. But, there is so much more to recommend it. I also bought the wireless connector. I have already used it to colour two illustrations for two book covers that I was working on and am planning to use it to colour drawings I am working on for another illustrated childrens' book. I hope this was helpful.

No it doesn't, or the 7.62x38 Nagant Revolver, 6.5mm Grendal and the .50 cal Beowolf. Its mainly a general reference for popular loadings. So any thing new in the last 5yrs or obscure is lacking.Do what I do and use the internet and common sense experience to work up a safe load.
