OK I think its time to start to reload and wanted to see what you guys would recommend as a press for a newbie?
I will be only reloading 10MM and 45 ACP. I am very new to reloading and have no experience in it but i think its time because I love my 10 mm and think it will be lots cheaper. thanks Lone |

Quoted:
If you are doing pistol only get a square deal B from Dillon. +1 I agree on the Square Deal B Especially if you're only doing one or two calibers. I have both the Square deal B and a Dillon 550. I like the Square deal as it is auto indexing whereas the 550 requires you to advance the shell plate manually. I mainly use the 550 for rifle calibers and to use other brand dies. I do just 45 acp with the Square Deal. |

Dillon Doesn't Dillon have Propriertory reloading components? Only on the Square Deal B. All the others use standard size and thread dies. To the OP, Dillon. Been using my SDB since '95 and loaded countless rounds on it. Had a chance to chrono them recently and got very nice consistency from it as well. |

All I use is a Lee single-stage. Works great, was cheap. Takes a little more time to load on than a progressive, but very simple to operate. Definitely get over to the Reloading Forum, in Armory. Alot of very usefull information in the tacked threads up top. thanks will go check that out and do some reading |
| I'm very happy with my Hornady LnL. Costs less than Dillon (no disrespect the the great Dillon products) and superb customer service and warrenty. When I decided to start reloading, I found I could buy all the requred tools and the LnL for the price of just the Dillon press. Money was a factor at the time. |
