[QUOTE="Hunter 257W, post: 5076313, member: 12277"] I got a Rock Chucker press back in 1979 when all I was loading was 30-30, 44 Magnum and 22-250. Later in 1996 when I bought my own house I wanted another full set of loading tools there also so I got another Rock Chucker so I could have a full set up at home and on the farm. The fact that I bought the same press again shows what I think about it. I've loaded tiny stuff like the 22 Hornet and up to 460 Weatherby's with the long Barnes 600 grain bullets. It handles them all with ease. I'd recommend staying away from progressive loaders until you are very familiar with all the steps in loading your own ammo. Then if you shoot a lot of handgun ammo and need that kind of quantity a progressive is a great time saver. I got 2 of the original Lee progressives. I got two because I didn't want to do any set-up when changing the cartridge I was loading for so I got one for 9mm and another for 45 Colt. The Lee presses where cheap enough to justify that.
