Given the current events, I have decided it is time to reload. I started by reading about every post here and on some other forums, then watched several youtube videos. But now I have my first question. Do I go out and buy a expensive Dillon Square Deal B and be done with it? From what I gather I would never have to buy another press. Or do I go out and buy a cheaper Lyman press to begin(and do more work)? It seems that a lot of reloaders start upgrading rather quickley to the Dillon after they start reloading. I want to start loading .38s, then .357s, then move to .45s. Anythougts would be apprciated.Thanks.
