Reloading Equipment

[BE_EL]

What reloading equipment and accessories are all the hand-loaders using? Any recommendations for someone interested in getting started?

I like RCBS, although some of my components are Lyman. 

They make some starter kits. take a look at this link....

Get a good load manual. Sierra makes an excellent reloading manual.

Thanks TSH_lance, I had looked at midsouth prior to my previous post. Afer looking there and elsewhere my interest has increased.  Not counting the time involved, what are we looking at in cost savings over the long haul (especially for someone interested in target shooting) for hand loads vs. factory bought ammo?

i'm not real sure there is going to be a cost savings to reloading. Most reloading is done for quality and consistancy. I think I remeber seeing a reloading cost calc somewhere on the internet, I will look for it and let you know.

check with midway also... I have also used Able in huntsville. you can google both.

Thanks, I'll check around also and see what I find. I would mainly be interested in the pro's and con's of various manufacturer's equipment before I make the investment. I thought I would start here first to garner some input. By the way, I stopped into Carter's Country the other day and forgot to see if they may have the primers you were looking for.
