I am considering getting into reloading. I have 2 9MM, a 357 revolver and a 1911. The best I can figure is to continue to buy the 9mm loads because they are so cheap and I need to shoot FMJ bullets.
I am interested in loading special and 45 rounds. I shoot about 600-800 rounds per week in all the guns.
I am considering a Lee turet press or a Dillion 550B. I know from reading the other threads, that everyone will say buy the Dillon if you can afford it. But I am concerned that it might be better to start on the Lee or something similar to "learn" the trade before moving into the progressive machines.
Does it make sense to start with a AT 500?
Also, I'm a little confused about the Lee "factory" crimp die. Is it any better than what you get from dillon.
A further note, I do not own any rifles at this time.
Thanks for any help you can share. Also would be interested in the best training resources. Thanks
