[QUOTE="Meister, post: 106819, member: 4118"] Good choice on the press, I like them very much. I have heard great things about the Co-Ax as well. I bought the RCBS kit when I first started, it was plenty good enough to start my adventure. The reading material was informative and easy to use, and my first set of dies were RCBS 308win. I have learned over the years to buy Redding dies because of their cocentricity and uniformity. The RCBS hand priming tool was a great purchase as well. I recently primed 1000 cases while watching a movie from my recliner. A case trimmer will be necessary to shorten those magnum cases after a few firings. I have the RCBS Manual trimmer but just about any will do. I have since upgraded my equipment as needed and as funding became available. This way I could start reloading with what I had and learn what I liked and didn't. I also learned what slowed me down and what equipment was needed to speed that portion up. My best piece of advice is to stay away from Lee, it's ok for the average shooter, but lacking the sophistication and repeatability required for long range precision shooters. [/QUOTE]
