I have a Hornady . I have had it about a year now . it works great . I load 45 acp with it . I also bought the auto brass feeder . the powder measuring insert that comes with it is not fine enough to be able to measure small amounts of powder . I then bought the pistol rotor and the pistol micrometer insert . now it will measure small amounts of powder very well . I have been as low as 3.6 without a problem . so with you loading pistol you can count on buying those items too . I would also recommend you buy a few extra case retainer springs part # 392363 . this spring holds the brass case into the shell holder plate . I had one get caught under the shell holder and ruined it . they cost $1.80 each June 2007 . that retainer spring is the only mishap I've had with it and I've loaded about 8,000 rounds with it . with the Hornady you buy the press , and the shell holder . if you get the brass feeder you also need the case feeder plate . and you will want the pistol inserts for the powder measure . and don't bother getting the powder through expander for cast lead bullets, I got one and it doesn't open the case enough for cast lead , but it should be ok for jackets . here are a couple pics of mine .
if you have any more questions just ask . Jim
