Have to put a few years experiance with reloading to work here. I've helped guys fix many different machines, from Lyman to Lee to RCBS and they all make decent equipment. I have settled on what I consider to be the best. Go to www.bluepress.com and look at the Dillion RL550B progressive. They not only have a great machine but also have the best Warranty in the reloading market, add to that great support and your in there. The equipment is a little more expensive but they fix it for life if it breaks. As a general rule of thumb, reloads cost about half of medium grade factory stuff. With a little experience and research you can save more. My two cents worth!!! Good luck
