I just want to say thank you to everyone on this forum for the knowledge and addiciton LOL!! Im stictly going to reload 223 for now and then branch out once I learn more, I stuck with a single press because 1 Im learning 2 easier to tweek/mess with loads for my precision rifle and 3 the price!!  Thanks guys and gals.

It is an addiction! Take a picture of your setup now because before you know it you will have gear stacked high and deep!

Welcome!

Don't do like I did this morning and put together a spread sheet of all your reloading purchases since November...you might freak out

Congrats! I started with a single stage as well and have expanded considerably since... Make sure you get a reloading manual or two and read it before you start.

No shite!   I once tallied up what I spent on reloading tooling alone and was over a couple grand.   Oh and if you plan on moving a lot, don't buy redundant duplicates!

Thanks for bringing this up, I forgot to mention Ive got that base covered as well with 2 manuals. I got the Lyman 49th edition and the Hornady 9th edition(as I plan to reload mainly hornady bullets with a few exceptions for the precision rifle.)

I also decided to get:  The Beginner's Guide to Reloading Ammunition: With Space and Money Saving Tips for Apartment Dwellers and Those on a Budget
