I have a chance to buy a new-in-box RCBS Mini Grand Press for 12ga 2-3/4" up to 3-1/2" shells for $50.

I estimate that I will use up to 75-100 rounds of premium no-tox shot per season. I plan to reload mostly magnum loads in both No-tox (hevi-shot & Bismuth) for geese and lead shot for turkey. Maybe even reload for the occassion upland bird round too.

Is it worth the investment? There is a pretty big sale at a store nearby and I can get components on the cheap also.

MThuntr,
They sell new for about $84 to $100 so yes it is a good buy. You are saying that you are only going to load 3 t 4 boxes a year???? You can do that in a heartbeat. I would think it would serve you very well. I have seen them but have never used one, but single stage loaders are hot that difficult to get comfortable with.

3 or 4 boxes of the expensive shot for geese, but I'm sure once I get started I'll load for just about everything. It will probably be about 2-3 cases a year (I don't shoot all that much)
