A friend directed me to Dillon Precision for my first reloader. He said might as well make your first reloader your last. Glad I took that advise.
Best, the retail store staff took considerable time over several visits to explain what I needed to get started. Since I needed everything, the bill was on the high side. After receiving my tax refund, I bought the whole bundle of stuff and got started reloading 45 and 9 mm.
Reloading is like plumbing - I always need more advice or someone to double check my attempts. Good how-to CD, lots of help on YouTube and live help from experienced staff when I needed an in person visit to the store - again.
Not only do the store staff intimately understand reloading, but are competitive shooters as well.
I'm competent now reloading both pistol and rifle rounds. The same press does it all with different size dies. When I have bent or broke things on the press, they give me free replacements with a few spares.
Dillon Precision is the best company I have dealt with in a long time.
