You can use a progressive reloader, a turret reloader, or a single-stage reloader.

Turret Reloaders: A turret reloader is similar to a progressive reloader, but it allows you to load only one round at a time. This type of loader is ideal for beginners or those who are looking to produce smaller quantities of ammo.

Single Stage Reloaders: A single-stage loader is the most basic type of loader and it allows you to load only one round at a time. This type of loader is ideal for those who are new to reloading or those who want to produce small quantities of ammo.

3. Pour a measured amount of powder into the case.
4. Seat the bullet into the case using a reloading press or hand tool.
