Hey guys, I’d like to start learning to reload bullets. I guess my questions would be 1: is there a certain brand that’s good to purchase? 2: is there a type that would load different types of bullets for hand guns? 9mm, .380, .38s and .357s... thanks
that rcbs press and goodies just listed .. total bargain!
Generally you buy a press and then the dies of the calibers you want to load. I started out with a single stage (cheap as possible ) to see if it was something I would even enjoy doing.
At the moment buying components is iffy to put it lightly, finding primers right now is impossible.

Agreed the setup listed in post 2 is a great deal. I would suggest starting there and see if you enjoy reloading. If you do you won't have to much in that setup as you will want to go progressive if your really wanting to make a lot of pistol ammo.
What's your budget? That'll help with answering any questions you have.
Or you buy a caliber you don't have then you have to buy a gun with that caliber.
Good question. I don’t know if a few hundred dollars would get me what I wanted or not.
A few hundred will get you loading if you spend your money wisely. Your going to need to pick a caliber to start with. Also how many rounds are you thinking you want to load a month? Regardless if this is your first step into reloading. I would go with a single stage. Personally I would avoid the Lee loadmaster listed above. They are known to need some tinkering. Not something a new reloader needs to be worrying about imo.
