for a beginer I recommend a Lee Load all its simple press and includes shot and charge bushings for just about every 2 3/4" to 3 inch load. The press is very simple to set up and use and darn near maintainance free. I used one for 10 years before I got my Hornady 366 progressive. also the lee load all is quite inexpensive about 40 bucks for the press not much of a loss if you decide reloading isnt for you. also the nice thing about the load all is if you decide you want to load other guages they make conversion kits for 20 ga and 410 bore for 20 bucks each. Even though I have a progressive press its setup for only trap loads to much of a hassle to swithc things around, So I still use my load all for loading heavier loads for pheasant and turkey.

heres a link to check out the load all: http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/te...&noImage=0

also if you decide to get a load all I would be more them happy to give suggestions on component combinations that ive found to work the best in the load all.

Not many guys on here know the ropes of loading shotshells im for the most part the shotshell guy on this forum. Any questions you have feel free to ask Im always game for helping out a fellow scatter gun enthusiast.
