[QUOTE="J-B welder, post: 2506570, member: 115997"] Started with a Lee Classic Loader for $35 and a cheap digital scale for around $40. Boss then gave me a set of dies and I bought a used Reloader Special for $120. Some "smalls" such as a funnel, lube pad, etc. probably cost me another $50. After that, I've been really fortunate to come across a couple estate sale lots that let me keep a few things to add or upgrade and re-sell what I didn't want so I made back what I paid for the bunch, essentially netting me free equipment. So I now have two single stage presses and a progressive, a good quality beam scale, powder measure and trickler, eight or ten sets of dies, collet style bullet puller, stuck case extractor, vibratory tumbler, and a few things I'm sure I'm forgetting for less than $500. All of it is used, but in very good condition, and not the fanciest stuff. For instance, the progressive is only a Dillon RL 450. I'm very happy with my set up, though. [/QUOTE]
