wanting to get started reloading and trying to get input on what brand press to buy and componets for it

RCBS, great quality, price, and customer service. Components depend on what your reloading for.

wanting to get started reloading and trying to get input on what brand press to buy and componets for it

Understand your desire but it's really not that simple. All our makers are fine and give excellant service, no matter what some folks may think! It often seems we all like what we have to the point that, sometimes, we are blindly loyal to the point of distrusting any others. But it's best to get each tool on it's individual merits and features, not by brand. No brand has a lock on the better features across the board.

What do you plan to load for, rifle or handgun or both? How much ammo is likely to be turned out per session? How much time will you have to do it? How many rounds a monnth? Are you looking for saving money or ready to spend what it takes to get absolute accuracy? How much room to you have to set your equipement up in?

What's "best" for an individual reloader depends more on the answers to those quesions than any brand, per se.

Try the SEARCH function. You can find out everything you want to know.

Before you buy anything... READ!!! Get some loading manuals, and ABC's of Reloading, do all your research, then decide what equipment you want/need, then shop for the best deal. good luck

You must get some manuals and read the sections on reloading (not the data sections). Modern Reloading, Second Edition, by Richard Lee is very good on every step of the reloading process. You will have to disregard his advertising/pushing his own equipment.

Good luck--reloading is the most enjoyable hobby I have.
