    That's why I changed my mind, to get set up to load 380/9/40/45/44 special would cost a fortune!

    I have loaded thousands of rounds in my $120 Lee kit, 1k of 45 and it payed for its self, I am looking at some other options like the Hornady but its not that much cheaper. Tomorrow another Lee and another 1k 45 bullets are landing. If this one works out next month I will order more stuff. I might add a Lee classic turret also but I am not sure.

    I met a friend of another board member who showed me his reloading set up. 7-8 ? lee s/stage presses. each caliber specific. I was impressed, all that red was kind of weird.

    It looked like the red yang, to hosers blue ying presses.

    I mixed in a Lee 1k progressive setup for 45. On sale with dies I am still saving money on this next 1k compared to buying store bought ammo. If I like it I will buy one setup for 9mm so I have a SP/LP set up.
