One never regrets buying quality, that is for sure, but for many starting out in reloading a more thrifty approach is needed. The HF calipers will serve them well and last a long time. Meanwhile they can be saving their pennies for a nice replacement if they ever need it. A machinist would be foolish to buy the HF for daily hard use, but the hobbyist will be well served by them.
Do not buy cheap if you really need .0001 accuracy, but as I posted, the need for that kind of accuracy is rare in reloading.
