I'm going to start reloading soon. I bought a Ruger 77/357 rifle (a matching revolver will surely follow) and I'd like to experiment with soft/hot loads with different bullets to tailor different needs. I don't think I'll need to produce in volume any time soon, so I'm looking at single stage presses to start out.
I'm sure I'll eventually move to other calibers as well (30-06 for accuracy or maybe 357 Sig for volume - crap that stuff is pricey!) Any advice accounting for current and future goals would be appreciated - I'm actually not sure what all to ask at this point.
So I'm looking at different S/S kits and I can't help but wonder what's the difference between, say a Lee Challenger kit at $117 and a RCBS Rockchucker at $319? I know I'll have to get other items (dies, etc.) regardless of which kit, but I'm not sure if one is more complete (or higher quality, or more suited to straight-walled brass).
A floundering noob would really appreciate your feedback.
