Hi All,
Just want your thoughts.
My experience so far is reloading 20 rounds .44 mag with my Lee Classic handloader. In short, I'm hooked and havn't even fired my rounds yet. BUT, I am already longing for something a little different than whacking with a hammer. I've researched quite a bit and eventually plan on a Lee Turret or a progressive press for speed and volume, HOWEVER, a local store has an RCBS partner press and dies (I plan to load .38 special and .357 Sig and .40 auto as well) and am getting very tempted because I want something quicker than ordering online, plus stock seems to be disappearing rather quickly. I know its a single stage which some will object to, but I've looked at hundreds of "reloading bench pix" over the last couple days, and most of the benches have MULTIPLE presses and many have at least one single stage. I've already decided that I would prefer to prime "off-press" for the time being (but NOT with the hammerwhack method of the LEE handloader anymore), so the single stage press seems like a good option for me. It seems like a good starting point. Any thoughts?
