[QUOTE="Hawgman, post: 825516, member: 7676"] I didn't catch if money is an issue. Going with a high end progressive is going to run you some real bucks. The price you see for the press is just the begining. Some of us got into progressives after reloading for some time. We already had the scale, loading blocks, dies, shell holders, and on and on and on. Just my opinion but just learning, especially if you're on your own, can be confusing and frustrating at times. Nothing you won't be able to figure out but figure it out you'll have to do. I just got into the progressive method after years of singlestage and you're constantly watching everything going on at once. If you get a single stage or turret press now there will still always be a place for it even if you move on to progressive. It's not like you're throwing away money. I noticed you're into fly fishing and tying your own flies. I fly fished up in Alaska for several years. Two of my regular fishing buddies tied their own flies. It really did make a difference. I'm making a leap here but I really believe if someone enjoys the detail of precision and control of all variables such as in hand fly tying, you're really going to dig a single stage press. It really does give the feel of ultimate control of the various processes involved. Just a few thoughts. [/QUOTE]
