I was going to order the Ceiner (sp) from Cabelas, but now I see one from Marvel, Kimber, Wilson, etc.

Which is best?

If I had to make a selection, I would say get the Colt original Ace kit. But let's face it, that will go for over two bills, plus the .22s and the required cleaning kit.

Why not handload and cast your own bullets? With a 200 grain semi-wadcutter and about 3 grains of Bullseye, you can make a load that doesn't kick much at all. (And it's cheap so you can practice more.)

Besides, I think all gunners should start looking to the idea that the liberals may one day try to make guns useless because ammo is hard to come by. You can't reload .22s (I think).

Reloading is a great hobby, and it teaches you a more in depth world of a great sport. Makes you feel good when the work of your own hand goes bang and hits the target!
