I’ve had several of these convertible cylinders and after one trip to the range or so and the oddball sits in the grey Ruger box until the gun sells.

The cheap single stage Lee press is still with me 30 years later.

I doubt there is a better cartridge to begin reloading for than .45 LC. You can keep upgrading gear if you insist, but a press, set of dies and Lee Dippers (measuring spoons) will get you a long way. Then get a powder scale.

When you get tired of washing used brass by shaking it in an old Wide mouthed juice bottle, you can get a tumbler.

The next time there is an ammo shortage, you can smirk online!

I think that’s a better use of money than refitting a cylinder.
