[QUOTE="Revived, post: 2408662, member: 31505"] I’m goin’ take this on from a different angle… You really need to ask yourself how much you currently shoot and how much you can invest to get started… The positive side - the equipment will pay for itself depending on your volume in time… Even most quality entry level equipment (single stage starter kits) can cost upwards of $300 depending on what your needs might be and/or bells and whistles you might want… then dies (get carbide – you’ll thank me later)… and components are another story (especially in this market)… I’ll take the “wisdom” of what aviator41 says a step further and say: You won’t save money cause you will shoot more… Not a bad thing, just the reality of reloading… Please check out the “Reloading FAQ’s” sticky at the top of this section for more info as well… Also… casting your own lead is great, but concentrate on learning to reload first… you’ll have enough on your plate… In time – if your volume needs increase and you feel like “livin’ on the edge” there are a few of us here that run dedicated progressives and can add input on what color to consider… [/QUOTE]
