Ya, that brass catcher for $60.00 is just fine if shooting from a bench but is a PITA when shooting off-hand.

Primers and powder don't go bad even if you store them rather poorly, so when you're able, just stock-up on components for your type of shooting that will last you a year or two - you'll never regret that decision unless someone steals everything.

You're probably using a single stage press - a progressive can make reloading a lot easier and that press will last a lifetime with minimal maintenance.
