jb26, it seems like you are just getting started in reloading. If so, it doesn't take long to get really hooked. Have fun and be safe. If not, my apologies for stating some things you may already know.

First, the turret press is just fine for loading 50 or a hundred or a couple hundred at a time. I've got two and a head for each caliber I load on the turret press. Had them for years and they work well.

Second, you mentioned loading 9mm. Make absolutely certain you have a scale to check powder charge weights. Also, make certain that you do not seat the bullet to deeply. Pressure rises very fast in the 9. That said, it is necessary to have a powder scale and caliper, so much so, that do not load without them. Maybe even buy them first or at least as part of a package. Glad to see you have or are getting a manual, which one? Read, read, read. And ask lot of questions. sundog
