[QUOTE="Mark37082, post: 3062584, member: 120066"] This is obviously a topic of great passion here at LRH. There are plenty of lessons learned while embarking on this journey. The buy once and cry once phrase is often offered from experienced reloaders. It makes sense for those that immerse themselves in this hobby and are shooting competitions or attempting to squeeze another .1 MOA improvement out of their load. The law of diminishing returns definitely applies. The OP is just getting started and wants to stick to a budget. He needs to first determine if this is something he wants to pursue as a passion. There are things that we all wished we had done differently in hindsight. Chronographs come to mind for me. Although the development of new entrants in the market with significantly improved offerings make buyers regret difficult to avoid. I have pulled my hair out with setup complications and inconsistent shot reading results with 3 different Chrono/radar platforms. Lost hundreds of $$ with ill-timed purchases. Now I finally have one that is simple and consistently does what it supposed to do. You can guess what I finally purchased. [/QUOTE]
