[QUOTE="tulku, post: 635074, member: 5203"] Tk , plus 1 on Hotdogs advice . I might add , go to a big Gun Show and pick up a few used Reloading Manuals and really READ them cover to cover . A used RCBS or Redding Press and their associated Dies is a good place to start either by buying at a Show or start scanning the Internet Classifieds . You will never wear out a good heavy duty Press . I don't like buying used Powder throwers . The Lee is a good start or go to a Redding BR . You will need a Powder Scale too . Here again , I would buy new . A mechanical like the RCBS is a good start . There are all sorts of other things you will need such as Verniers , etc. to pick up as you go along . Make a list from the Items described in the Loading Manuals . The very best start out advice I can give is to make friends at the Shooting Range with an experienced Reloader . Watch the guys who are shooting small Groups , make friends , and ask if someone will mentor you . Watching an experienced Reloader for a few hours will save you a ton of grief and clear up something which at first seems complicated . Then be prepared to spend more Bucks as you continually upgrade . Luck ! [/QUOTE]
