      Why bother with a single when there are so many progressives & turrets out there?!?

      But a single is the only press on my potential buy list.

        You tend to impulsive buy due to upgrade, good deal etc. Then realize you have a few too many presses. Not enough room.
        You thought reloading would save money. But then you buy components even for stuff you don't own or need.
        You shoot so you can hurry and cook up another pet load.
        Omg is everyone else the same? Or am I alone?
        Yes reloaders have it in their DNA. People who give up on reloading sold me more presses and stuff. Also you need more firearms so you can experiment with 'wildcats' and created the perfect ++P++ handgun load, because +P and +P+ is not enough.

          Everyone needs a ss press. I use mine to resize .10 cases and cast boolits. Also just to have around. I reloaded about 3000 223 on a ss before setting up my Dillon.
          Now i have this shotgun itch. Lol.

              Agreed. Pops reloaded. My uncle did too. 1 of 3 of my kids is learning as well. I just hope I can teach my kids before I run out of time.

                  Same year I bought mine. Also added a handle with a ball on it. Much easier.
                  It's all I use to handload with.

                        Yeah, just one press after 10 years of reloading.

                            I can't compete in this thread. I only have two presses. One RCBS single stage and a Dillon 550B. You guys need to step away from the bench for ten minutes.
