[QUOTE="OKCHunter, post: 3010226, member: 8534"] This^^^. I started with an RCBS Rock Chucker kit back in the early 90's. I recommend this kit to anyone starting to reload. It comes with everything you need except the components. Mine also included a Speer Manual. As others have said - read and understand the manual before attempting to handload. I still use that Rock Chucker press to this day for precision rifle loads and for depriming before cleaning the case with SS pins. ThenRoxk Chucker is built like a tank and will last a lifetime. All other metallic cartridge loading is done with an RCBS Pro 2000 progressive press. Regarding shotshells, the standard beginner setup is a MEC 600 jr; it's a great single stage press. I still occasionally use my 600 jr for hunting loads. But, for the 4K or 5K Registered Skeet targets I shoot each year, the MEC 9000 progressive presses for 12, 20, 28, and .410 are hard to beat.
