i should have broken it up its still processing. its been like 3 hours :P

Watched part 1, pretty cool! The others appear to be still processing.

I'm pretty sure you have already posted this somewhere, but how much does a complete setup like that cost & how much does it cost for a complete die set for another caliber?

migxdm · 03-07-2009, 12:54 AM

shit its spendy. 500ish for that press, it comes setup for one caliber with no dies. there are 2 parts to every caliber, the dies, and the caliber conversion kit which includes a bunch of things. dies are about 60 for pistol calibers, or 130 for rifle. a caliber conversion kit is like 70-90 bucks. so to get started you buy the press then a set of dies and you are around 600$ for one caliber. if you want a new caliber its gonna be about 200. those caliber conversion kits work with multiple calibers in some cases so like for 380 which shares the majority of 9mm i only needed to buy a 20$ shellplate and a station 1 locater for 15$ but then you will want a new tool head to set your dies in so you dont have to be swapping dies out of a single tool head all the time and running thru the hour long process of dialing it in the way mine is setup im prolly in the 2000$ range with only 3 calibers, 9mm, 380, and .45 :( also dont forget you need a tumbler to clean brass, media, polish, a media seperator, some way to sort your brass by caliber, powder at 21 bucks a lb usually, and primers which are 30$ per 1k, or 3$ per 100. oh and bullets, which cost 90 bucks for 1000 .380's, and dont forget brass unless you have been saving all yours. usually 30 bucks will buy you 1000 shells or so. its best to just give your friend money (me) to expand their operation to reload a specific caliber for you. :D
