I chose POF, and really like them, but there are so many weapons to choose from in so many different price ranges. Do you have a budget in mind?
I really like the look of the POF's. Budget... Doesn't really matter, just the longer it takes to get one.

You can get sticker shock from some reloaders equipment, but if you do your homework you can get in to it fairly cheap.

I did one thing that even the hardcore accuracy guys think is overkill... I deprime then clean my brass with a Thumblers Tumbler and SS roller bearing media. Since I clean brass in my kitchen this technique doesn't throw dust like a dry media cleaner.

I also use a scale that's so accurate I have to turn off my ceiling fan and hold my breath to use it ... but those are my two splurges, the rest of my equipment is on the low side, like a Lee classic 4 hole turret press and Lee dies.
Thanks, yes I will have to get into it. I definitely need to research everything first. I may just buy an expensive setup with my brothers.
