I want to get a reloading kit but not sure what to get. Who can help me out? Just looking for something simple to start with. Calibers I am shooting at the moment .25 auto, 9mm, 7.62x54. Mostly 9mm

PS: Virgil's video is great.

What video would that be? Think I missed it.

I don't see a link to a video there.

Oh good. Thought I was going crazy. Now that you have the turret press, do you wish you would have just gotten that from the start instead of getting the 50th anniversary kit?

Thanks guys. Looking at the prices, there really isn't that much of a difference btween the kits (single vs. Turret). Right now I am leaning towards the turret.

Great information guys. Thanks so much. Yes, the 4 hole turret is what I plan to get. I already ordered the Lee reloading book. Should be here in a few days. Can't wait to start reading it. Thurday is range day. More brass to get.

How many times do you have to use 9mm brass before you have to trim? I plan on using minimum loads at the beginning. Just wondering if a case length guage is in order also.

I just started reloading, and I have the Lee 50th Anniversary kit. It's single stage, and is super-simple to use, quick to change out the dies, and easy to set up. I've never used a turret press, but for my $.02, go with the basics at first.

I keep flip flopping back and forth trying to decide between the 4 hole turret kit and the 50th Anniversary kit. Right now it's the turret. I plan to use it single stage at first.

Who knows, when I go to place my order I might flip back to the Anniversary kit. :undecided:

Finally ordered my press today. I went with the Lee 50th Anniversary kit. Ended up getting that one because of price and the goodies that came with it. Really didn't have to order anything but the dies. I did end up getting a bullet puller, another set of the breech lock bushings, and a case length guage. I had enough money left over to get me a Ruger P95. I've wanted one for a very long time. Ordered it from Gallery of Guns. Should be ready to pick up from the local shop tomorrow. :cry2:
