I am looking at getting into reloading, since 358 ammo is going to cost me 48.00 a box. I am wondering which reloading jigs would be good for me to get, I have been looking at rcbs and lee, which would you recommend for my 358 rifle and 357 pistol? | ||

I started of with the RCBS Master Reloading "kit". Cabelas had a good deal many years ago and im sure still do. I have the old Rockcrusher II press. Id get the RCBS kit. Redding dies Maybe check out what kind of deal redding has on a package deal also | |||

RCBS, no question IMO. ------------------------------------ The trouble with the Internet is that it's replacing masturbation as a leisure activity. ~Patrick Murray "Why shouldn`t truth be stranger then fiction?

If your choices are between these two brands, the RCBS kit is a best buy. Otherwise, take a look at Redding's equipment. Their BR2 powder measure is superior, and their presses are better made than RCBS's current offerings. The turret press has no peer. Good shopping. | |||

I bought the RCBS Advantced RC Supreme Master kit which includes the Chargemaster 1500 elecontronic dispenser/scale... It's not cheap when you include the 1500 but that's what I wanted... The RCBS RC Supreme Master kit is about half the price and is a VERY good deal... You'll still need to buy the odds and ends stuff but the kits are a good place to start... I added the Forster Co-Ax press to the mix as well so I'm set with two excellent presses and the usual quality RCBS tools... Ken....

Would you recommend the single stage or the turett press? | |||

A good single stage works great. If you are only going to load for one caliber most anything works. I would recommend starting with a good single stage. You don't even need the kit if you are patient enough to scrounge up the pieces. | |||

The turret press is a convenience for those who would have to change dies frequently. I have heard only high praise from Redding T-7 users. If you anticipate expanding your loading interests and are not economically constrained, the turret would be an option. The trade-offs are: what you need, what you can afford, and what appeals to you. Good shopping. | |||

RCBS rockchucker is the way to go and they have a fantastic warranty policy. I sent in a very old scale for a tune up a couple months ago and they sent me a new one. Can't beat that. | |||
