[QUOTE="misterc01, post: 2124106, member: 109160"] Sometimes it seems that wants vs needs that drive the reloading budget! I started with a Rockchucker Supreme I go tnew for less than one cost on eBay and it works perfectly for all my precision reloading needs. Yeah a Forster co-ax would be nice - but I don't need one. For volume reloading - pistol and such, I use a Lee turret press. I bought as I learned, so I have a few things I "outgrew" with experience, but no regrets as it was part of the learning process. Probably the hardest items to decide on are all the measuring tools. Get a GOOD caliper - I use a Mitutoyo with a Hornady backup. I use a quality beam balance scale to verify my powder loads even though I digitally measure and dispense it. I still check every tenth load to make sure nothing has drifted. One of my most important items is my reloading checklist. I document eveyrthing during every reloading session, and save them for future reference. It also grows as I learn more, or add more steps to refine what I am reloading for. And if I ave to stop mid-session before finishing, I know right where I was and where to pick up from. Bottom line to me - don't be in a hurry and have fun!
