The press got good reviews from what I can see. The scale is about the only thing some people did not like (too cheap-o). So what say ya experience re-loaders? Good deal?

By the time you get the rebates (you missed the $20 off $150 or more that expired on Sunday from Cabela's), it is less than wholesale.

Buy it.

Great price. That's exactly the setup I use, and I love it.

Better single stage than a Dillon?

Better single stage than a Dillon?

I don't think that is an even comparison. This RCBS product is a single stage press where as Dillion's current line up is all multi-stage progressives (except for the .50 but that is in a whole other ball park).

A better comparison would be this vs other single stage presses like LEEs, Hornady, etc.

Now if you are comparing customer service that would be different. From all that I have read Hornady, RCBS, and Dillon all have top-notch customer service.

That is virtually my set up that I use. I don't have the RCBS powder hopper but will soon upgrade to one.

It looks like a set of calipers and a tumbler and you are good to go!

This is a pretty good deal, and I personally wouldn't recommend anything other than RCBS for a single stage. And the scale is not cheap-o. It is just not electronic, which requires some work and effort on behalf of the reloader to understand and be maticulous with what they are doing. I think some people are just lazy. (I use an electronic scale too, for the record, so I am not implying that all people who use them are lazy.)

Rock Chucker

About a zillion reloaders have started out with a Rock Chucker kit. Some move on to a progressive but it's a great way to start. That is a good buy, too.
