Reloading question....

[DrenalinJunkie]

I haven't reloaded anything since I was 15 or 16 so I have a question........

Say a guy wants to start reloading pistol and rifle rounds, is there a press that will do both?

Is it just a matter of buying the right dies for each round?

[Luck_of_the_Draw]

Yes you can load bothfrom a single stage press.

[RingSteel]

Yep, just buy a set of reloading dies for each caliber you want to reload. One press takes care of both (except shotgun shells).

My Hornady Lock-N-Load will do both. As said, just get the dies and you are good to go.

dies AND shell holders I use a T-7 turrent press and love it.

Dies and shell holders for each size, but that's been covered. If your just doing a box or two, a Rock Chucker is the way to go. The turret presses can't be beat,if your doing 100's of rounds at a time.

Thanks for the info folks!

So what would be a good press for a guy reloading a few boxes here and there?
Best place to get said press?

[RingSteel]

A good reloading manual would be helpful too. This one is on sale for $10.

RCBS Rock Chucker, you can find them anywhere. CL, Ebay, TBH or in the paper.Cheap and always work.

Thanks for the info!

I am assuming a good tumbler for brass is needed as well?

I use a tumbler for brass that's beginning to discolor, but if the brass is still clean and shiny, it's not necessary.

Tumblers are starting to go "old school" as many ppl are now shifting to ultrasonic jewelry cleaners with liquid solution

I've used Iosso case cleaner for yrs and it works perfectly fine

Dillion press is the way to go.
