RP, that's more like it. A definitive explanation about what you know, and want to know. You wanted something to read, so here is what I suggest, the ABC'S of reloading.
http://www.amazon.com/Abcs-Reloading...5549988&sr=1-1

Read this first, then get a reloading manual, and read that, at least the front. There, they will tell you the how to and what not to do. Depending on what type of manual you get, there will be specific brands of loaders specified. For instance, Speer will feature RCBS loaders, Hornady will show hornady loaders. A manual put out by a powder company will have no featured loaders, sort of generic info.

After doing your homework, get with your uncle. I'm sure you can then load some good ammo for that rifle.
