I still have not decided what to get. I am more of a buy once and be done with it type of person, meaning I do not mind spending the extra money as long as it gives me the bang for the buck.
For a beginner, there are two simple choices, based on what kind of reloading/shooting you do most often. If you shoot a lot of pistol rounds, with relatively few rifle (bigger than 223) rounds, get a Lee Classic Turret. If you shoot mostly rifle rounds, with relatively few pistol rounds, get an RCBS RockChucker.
If, and ONLY if, you shoot several hundred to a thousand rounds of pistol ammo per month...get a Dillon 550. If you don't shoot that much, say 300-500 per month, save yourself some money and get a simpler press that will still meet your needs, easily. The Lee Classic Turret would be sufficient for that amount of shooting.
