Buy in haste, regret in leisure.
Buy in haste, regret in leisure.
Assemble your own kit.
A good loading manual first.
Then for the gear, start with a press you will be happy with for the next 20 years.
Buy a good set of dies and a scale.
That's all you REALLY need to assemble rounds.
Don't buy anything else until you need to use it.
Caveat: The foregoing is only one way to approach establishing your equipment. But it is an alternative to buying a kit that was assembled by someone who has never met you and does not know your taste or style.
Such a kit is bound to have things you do not need, want or like and will lack things you will want, need or prefer.
What you save in the kit price you will spend swapping out the pieces.
What you gain in going through the work of picking each piece is a more intimate knowledge of your gear and yourself.
So, buying a kit vs assembling your own. Each approach is valid. Neither is "wrong". So, just pick.
Go forth, be safe and be happy.
