i've been wanting to get into reloading for a while. i bought a lee classic loader a little ways back for my .308 and it has worked well. however, pounding rounds together with a mallet got old quick, once i tried a freind's turret press. i still like the portability of the classic loader and will likely keep it around though.
i've been reading and checking out reviews of presses and equipment trying to decide what route to take. i liked the idea of piecing together my own set-up rather than buying a kit, but ultimately the kit made more sense. being that the press, powder measure, scale, and priming system i wanted all came together in the rcbs rockchucker supreme master kit.
i also ordered rcbs .308 dies and shellholder
the "ABCs of reloading" book
rcbs bullet puller and collet
lee primer pocket cleaner
lee case length gauge and shellholder
lee case trimmer and lock stud (with ball handle)
hornady lock and load bushing conversion kit
rcbs advanced powder measure stand
the kit comes with a speer reloading manual, and i plan to photo copy the pages that are applicable to my calibers out of my friends manuals until i can pick up others.
for now, i'll be focusing on .308, and with .357/38spl soon to follow.
any advice, words of wisdom, critiques or suggestions regarding my kit......im all ears.
