Okay I am debating buying the kit versus buying the components invidulally. I am looking online craigslit, ebay, gun forums, etc for a used press.
RCBS Rock Chucker Supreme Single Stage Press Master Kit - MidwayUSA
Master Kit Includes:
Rock Chucker Supreme Single Stage press
505 scale
Uniflow Powder Measure
Speer Reloading Manual
Hand priming tool with small and large primer plugs
Folding Hex Key Set with 0.050", 1/16", 5/64", 3/32", 7/64", 1/8", 9/64" and 5/32" keys
Universal Case Loading Block, which holds 40 cases in most rifle and pistol calibers
Case Lube Kit, which includes a 2 oz bottle of Case Lube-2, a case lube pad, 2 case neck brushes for .22 through .30 calibers and an accessory handle
Powder Funnel for .22 to .45 caliber, including the Winchester Short Magnum calibers
Chamfer and deburring tool for .17 through .45 caliber
My question is what else do I need other than components to start reloading with this kit?
From reading other forums I have come up with this list:
Digital Calipers
Dies
Reloading Manuals of course
case trimmer
powder trickler
RCBS powder measure stand
shell holders
bullet puller
Redding/Imperial Sizing die wax
deburring tool
Tumber/media
Is the 505 scale good or is there a better or more economical scale?
I have to re read my abc of reloading manual again, but I am getting the funds together for a reloading setup.
I tend to be a little ocd or as the wife puts it "anal retentive" I just hate spending so much money on 223/556 so I've decided I need to reload. I plan to reload 223, 40, 45 acp, and otgrs down the road.
I really appreciate any and all input or suggestions.
