I've looked at the normal spots, BPS, Cabelas, even Amazon. roughly $150 seems to be it. Anyone else have a better source for it or something similar? Much thanks in advance.

$115 at MidwayUSA.
Out of stock, OK to back order.

Ahh sweet ok, I wonder how long a lead time they're working off of? On another newbie note, both Bass Pro and Cabelas have similar "kits" and I don't know enough to judge them from one another. I do know by reading here the Lee scale you get is not a nice one.

On a reloading note in general, starting out does everyone pretty much buy factory ammo, keep their cases, then reload them ideally never having to buy "once-fired" brass?

Prob out of budget but I think this is a really nice starter kit with good scale

In perfect world you never buy brass as a hand loader. I started keeping cases for caliburs I shoot a lot before I started to reload. I have lots of different calibur cases now that I might want for future weapon ownership. If I had to buy brass to get started I'd do it. Enjoy your new hobby!

Thank you all for the info it's been a great help. What about this kit, seems like it's "missing" things though :confused:
