Nice press...I do not have my scale on my loading bench..it is on another bench that i use for filling rifle cases with powder.
the bench is actually a big solid wood dresser.
I have 45acp and 357 mag pistols and i do not crimp the rounds...I do send them through a sizer that lee makes..but no crimp...I tried crimp vs no crimp ..and my accuracy was better with no crimp.
My 30-30 would get a crimp..but just a tiny touch with the copper bullets.
You can't beat one of the lead rounds out with the lee alox lube on them...
Loading books will be your friend.
Fun hobby for sure ..just a note ..you will not save money reloading your own..
But you will shoot more.
