Buck's comments are valid and honest, he has had good service with his equipment BUT he has no experience with Lee, etc. I have. It's all good.
The RCBS beam scales are made by Ohaus, they are perhaps the primer scales of their type but the other brands have good scales too. I don't care for digital scales at all, they are far to finicky and expensive for what you get. I mean, they are just scales, what can they do but weigh things and beams do that quite well!
Many of us have a dislike for anything made of aluminum alloys, perhaps especially presses, and prefer cast iron presses or, better yet, cast steel. The RCBS Partner is alum, so is the Lee Challenger ( the one in the Anniversary kit ) so is the Hornady LnL. We may not care for the alum. alloy but, truth be told, they are each very good presses and each will last a LOONG time!
It is my understanding that RCBS does get it's iron press castings from China now. So far as I know, all of the others are still made in the USA. I wouldn't mind the China castings so much if it was reflected in the price. It isn't.
I have an old Rock Chucker press. It's okay but I'd swap it, even, for a Lee Classic Cast (all steel) to gain a better lever and a primer catcher that works.
Many don't like some of the design features of Lee's dies but I think they just don't understand the excellant mechanical principles involved in them. They are actually quite good dies and make ammo the equal of any other brand.
Overall, I sorta like the quality and value of the Lyman "Orange Crusher" starter kits these days.
