[QUOTE="CleanShot, post: 1101667, member: 70364"] Hello I have been doing some preliminary research about presses to get started reloading. At first I was taken aback by the cost of getting started so I thought I'd put it off until I was ready to start longer range shooting. Right now my range only goes out to 300 yards and I spend most of my time still learning at the 100 yard mark. But as I was reading more about reloading I saw some recommendations that newbies should start out with a single stage press and aim for precision rather than producing large volumes of rounds. The idea was that doing small volumes with less fancy equipment makes you focus on each step and getting things right and learning rather than production speed. It seems the single stage presses drop the entry price quite a bit making it more approachable as well. However I wanted to get your thoughts on this. I was originally looking at a Hornady Lock N Load AP for maybe sometime in the future but something like an RCBS or Lee single stage might get me started sooner. Thing I don't want to do I spend on something I'll quickly out grow however. Opinions? Thanks Sam [/QUOTE]
