So, I'm totally excited to start reloading. Did my homework, read two books, watched videos, bought Lyman's Reloading Manual, and not comes time for the gear.

I was going to buy a progressive kit until I talked to a man that had been reloading for 30 years. He told me to go with the single stage instead. He said it will be less frustrating for me to use until I learn the art of reloading enough to graduate to a progressive press.

Is that sound advice? The single stage is a lot cheaper........seems like a bit more work though?

In not sure why the SS would be so much "easier" than the progressive.....?
