RE: What Equipment did you start out with?
 

Started out with lee, quickly moved to a rockchucker and RCBS everything. Now, moving to a Redding T7.

RE: What Equipment did you start out with?
 

A Lyman "All American" turret press which I bought 25yrs ago! Hey, I still have Herters catalogs from the 60's!:)

RE: What Equipment did you start out with?
 

I started with a kit from Pacific that a friend of mine was selling but have up graded to a Redding T-7 press. I haven’t replaced to many parts other then a RCBS trimmer and a primmer tool. Next on the list is a new beam scale but not really a priority. Most of my dies are RCBS with some Pacific and I’m looking at getting a couple of Redding...

I started with a Lyman press ,dies and I forget who made the scales back in the early 50's . Some of the companies of today weren't in business back then then . I've replaced everything many times .

RE: What Equipment did you start out with?
 

I started with an RCBS Rockchucker kit. Quickly ended up with a hand priming tool, tumbler, calipers, and powder trickler. Thats about all that I have plus loading blocks and loaded ammuntion boxes.

Started out with an RCBS Rockchucker kit and all RCBS dies. Also still use the same RCBS hand operated trimming tool. Did add a hand priming tool and finally bought myself a new electronic scale/powder measure. Bought the Lyman 1200 DPII. What a sweet toy!!! Tonight I loaded 50 rounds of 22-250 faster than ever. It measures and dumps the powder into the pan while I'm seating a bullet on the last load. By the time my bullet is seated, the pan is full of the next load and just keep going! My guess is that I cut my reloading time down by 2/3 on the rounds that I load alot of.
Also started using some Redding dies. They're very nice and I think they may be a bit better than the RCBS's. JMPO.
Happy loading to all!

Started with an RCBS RS3 press and 5-0-5 scale about 30 yrs ago. Still cranking out great ammo. No need to replace.

RE: What Equipment did you start out with?
 

Well, I am not the veteran like most of the responses here have come from.But nontheless I started out with a Lee Classic Reloader. You know, the kind that you need a mallet and hard surface to use. That was cool, but after 2 shoulder surgeries I have a helluva time swinging a hammer that much so I finally bought a Lee Classic Cast press. Much easier now. I am still adding and upgrading items as I can afford it. You guys have all been great for offering words of advice and wisdom. Thanks.:)

I started out with a Hornady progressive press 21 years ago and still use that press. I have purchased another just like it so I always have one press for large primers the other for small.
Not sure I would tell someone starting out to get a progressive but I believe the chances of a double charge are very slim with auto indexing

Rockchucker.

I started out with a Lyman 310 tong tool and dies for the .30/'06. plus a Pacific powder scale and a brown paper sandwich bag full of Hodgdon WWII surplus 4895 powder, 100 -M2 ball 150 grain FMJ bullets from the DCM, and 100 Remington 9 1/2 primers.

Yes, I have replaced all this stuff many times over! But I still use that old 310 tool from time to time, usually for seating primers, one at a time, in cases with '06 size shell heads.......

RE: What Equipment did you start out with?
 

Started out with a used Pacific Mag 3-ram press, Pacific trimmer and scales. Went thru the digital scale phase and came back to my RCBS beam balance. My press is a Rockchucker. My current trimmer is Forster. Now use the RCBS hand priming tool also.

RE: What Equipment did you start out with?
 

started out with lee. just bought the lee classic. still can't beat the price. loads great ammo.:)

RE: What Equipment did you start out with?
 

I started with a Forster Co-Ax press and dies and other pieces of equipment from various manufacturers. I bought all my initial stuff from Sinclair Int'l and ended up with equipment from Redding, Forster, RCBS, Vibrashine, Sinclair, PACT,etc, etc, etc...The one single piece of equipment that I didn't buy initially, butenjoy using more than any other (except for maybe thepress)is the Lee collet neck die. I now use it for every cartridge I reload for except one.

RE: What Equipment did you start out with?
 

Well yes and no. I got my first reloading set over 40 years ago. Pacific deluxe. I still use that old press and powder thrower exclusively. I have since got another scale (rcbs 505), and trimmer (rcbs trimpro). The dies I use are rcbs, lyman, and lee.
