Whats the cheapest way to get into reloading. I don't need anything progressive, Just something to see If I have an interest before I upgrade.
Have lots of good brass, just need some ideas as to a package and a good reference guide.

A bad day hunting is better than a sharp stick in the eye.. Or is it?

I would have to suggest the RCBS Rock Chucker kit. I think it runs around the 250-300 range, it comes with everything you need to start reloading except for dies. Check out the Midway USA website, they have a big selection of reloading equipment.

THE cheepest would be a Lee Loadall or a Lee hand press.
Look into the Lee loading manual and you MAY find a certificate for a free hand press.
Having said that, I am not a huge fan of Lee equipment but if $$ is your first objective it is the way to go

I would try E-Bay. They have lots of used items and could outfit yourself easy. Look for people that are selling old estates for that you can get most of what you need from the same person to save on shipping. If you want new I would check out Midsouth Shooters Supply and would get Hornady dies and Lee press. Good luck Jovan

I was in your same boat about two months ago. I did not want to invest alot of money into something that I was unsure about. I ended up geting the lee aniversery kit for seventy bucks from midway usa. All you have to buy is the dies and for under a hundred bucks you will be on your way, the only other thing you will need is a Caliper to check COL. (to check how deep you set the bullets and to tell ya how long the cases are so you know when to trim them) I would have to say that I am "happy" with my "starter" kit. But with that said when I do use my lee stuff I get a real good "cheap" feeling. Its made of aluminum so it just has that light feeling to it. But I am happy with my purchase and now that I know reloading is something I want to do I can now upgrade slowly and in smaller amounts of money. Lee makes a Classic cast iron press that I looked at when at cabelas and I liked it as much as the RCBS and the lyman, so dont take it as I am saying Lee stuff is bad, I like it but the aniversery press in my mind is truely only a starter press.

I bought the Lee Aniversary Kitas well. I really like it. My father-in-law bought the RCBS Rock Crusher and while it is heavier I don't see a difference in reloading quality. I have bought both RCBS and Lee dies for my rifles, just to see if there is a difference, and have found none when reloading with the RCBS press or the Lee press. I do like the seating/crimping die of the RCBS for bullets with a cannulure (sp?) but the Lee Factory Crimp Die is nice for those bullets that don't have one.

For the money though, you just can't beat the Lee Aniversary Kit and it works just fine. It will get you reloading fast and you will learn a lot. Later on, you can always buy just a press, of your choice, to do the sizing of cases if you think that your Lee press isn't satisfactory, and use the Lee press for seating bullets. That will help speed things up. I now use my Lee 50 Cal Kit press to size my cases, only because it has better leverage, yet still don't see a performance difference.

I got the Lee Reloader with the reloading manual. Saw what I needed, and since I have a 7 x 65R ordered dies from Hornady, and started reloading. Love it. Didn't take as much as I thought to invest and says in the end with the special caliber.
