Could mean the difference in an enjoyable first time experience vs. much aggravation.
Very true on all points. I do my rifle reloading on a Lee press and have zero complaints about it. I bought the kit to get started. With the kit you will quickly find that you want to upgrade a few things. The press and dies are great but I upgraded pretty much everything else. RCBS digital scale. RCBS champher deburring tool.
Along with the press and dies there are several other costs to consider. Case tumbler for cleaning brass, polishing media for the tumbler, case lube for sizing brass, stuck case remover (happens to us all eventually), primers and powder. Powder can be an investment.
