[QUOTE="Moondoggie, post: 2812235, member: 119723"] IMO, all good information here. I think you will eventually tailor to your specific needs and everyone is different. RCBS rock chucker or rebel. Bought the rebel (very satisfied with it) when I started a couple years ago. Not the kit, cause I personally think kits have useless stuff or a product you would rather have from another manufacturer. Already looking at another press, only because I want a dedicated one for 5.56. Must haves...a few manuals, which one to start? Pick one. I chose Speer. Reloading blocks! The first time you knock over a cartridge or dumped powder out of brass and started over because you weren't sure, then you'll understand. Get several. I made several out of persimmon wood I cut on my mill. Drilled on a press then coated with poly. There are several threads that give size of drill bit in relation to cartridge. A micrometer. I would not go harbor freight on this one. Get a decent one. As most others have stated, stainless pins are the Cadillac. Be sure to get a magnetic pickup! Next piece of equipment upgrade for me...rcbs chargemaster. Mainly because I load a lot of 5.56 and 9mm. [/QUOTE]
