@Iraqveteran8888 I might have to get one, I really like the looks of them. I got rid of both of my lee turret presses for the sole fact of small slop in the turret heads. Then again, my RCBS rockchucker loaded ammo yesterday that allowed my cooper to put 5 shots into a single hole at 100 yards... decisions decisions.
@Dp908 I haven't noticed any kind of slop at all in the head after a year, only in the linkage like any other press over time. It loads ammo as consistent as my Boss single stage will load if it means anything. When Eric says it's built like a tank, he means it. Hell, it's about 25 lbs of press if I remember the specs.
What do you think of the reloading kit that Hornady is offering through Midway where they give you 500 bullets for free with the purchase of the kit? I just got a 1911 and would like to reload lead bullets . Great vid thumbs up !
@chavezchavez556 I got a similar deal with a few sets of Hornady dies,100 free bullets with my purchases. Hornady makes excellent equipment. For pistol, especially bulk loading, a progressive or a turret press will save you a lot of time over a singke stage. I loaded some .357 Magnum from start to finish on the T-7 using the priming attachment and a Lee Auto-Disk with excellent results. No changing dies, everything was staged on the turret. I loaded 100 rounds in about 20-25 minutes.
@76stankfinger. Buy a Lee. It will make quality ammo, and is a great value! I use a variety of brands, but I always recommend Lee to people who are new to reloading. I have only been doing it for 2 years, and I still buy Lee equipment quite often. I would recommend the Lee Classic Turret Press. It has lots of room for a person to progress without having to buy a new press after you understand how the reloading process works.
Great video as always. I have been saving up for reloading supplies and would like to start reloading. I have been looking at both the Lee and RCBS products. Both look like they will do the job. Would you recommend the Lee Challenger Press or the RCBS Rockchucker press for a beginner? Thanks :)
what is a ideal height to make a reloading bench for press operaion?

They really hold their value too. I sold mine on E-bay when I bought a Hornady progressive and it sold for just about what I paid.

Will that press fit a .50 caliber rifle cartridge? I'm having a little trouble finding the right press that will fit the .50
