I have the RCBS Jr. press that Sputnik sent me, but it looks like it might be cheaper to buy this kit instead of all the additional parts needed to get going with just the press. Hope some of you are still following this thread and give me some advice on what is the best way to buy equipment that isn't junk and good enough to get starting making good rounds without putting me too far into debt.
A set of calipers can be purchased for about $20.00 that will do the job.

There is plenty of free reloading data available on the web from Powder and Bullet Manufacturers. So a book in the Kit is not NECESSARY. [nice to have]

If Price is your primary concern then go with this kit. It should work well for anything 30-06 or smaller.
