I personally like the tmag better, if you load for pistol and do a lot of shooting the turret press will save you alot of time. Either way the press may come with a ram prime, I don't reccomend using it, spend an extra $20-25 and get a Lee Autoprime and set of shell holders. Easy to use and more consistent when seating primers. There are a few internet retailers but I have found that all around Midway and Cabelas have about the best prices as well as a large selection, usually if you place an early on Monday you have it on Friday. That point is moot if you have a number of retailers near you. For 270 and 7mm mag there is a good selection of bullets available, I suggest once you get started, buy the USA single caliber load books, they contain data from all the most popular data sources. They take up a lot less room. I like the Lyman manual because they specify loads that duplicate factory ballistics and serves as a great baseline.
