    Reloading costs

    I am in the process of buying a Stevens 200 .308 and I want (soon) to start reloading ammo for it, how much is the start up costs to reload ammo

    (note: I am just looking for the estimated total price of equipment, Please dont include the price of shells, bullets, primer or powder in the price)

    Thanks in advance

    RCBS master kit runs $339 and has a $50 mail in rebate

    Redding two die set $38

    Tumblers run $50 - $80
    Total for everything will cost around $400

        Why so many 'reloading costs' threads?

            THIS..^^^^

            Talking to someone at DILLION the other day: they are busy shipping to Californistan because of this reloading craze.

            Fewer people are killed with all rifles each year (323 in 2011) than with shotguns (356), hammers and clubs (496), and hands and feet (728).

              Could be the handgun internet ammo "ban" set to start in 22 days?

                I recently, back in September started reloading and went with a Lee Anniversary kit, some people don't like the lee kits because some of the components are cheaply made, although for myself a fairly low volume reloader I've been more than satisfied with the kit and am already nearing the kit paying for itself.

                this is the kit i bought


                Along with the kit I bought dies for 3 calibers and a reloading manual and was able to start reloading for about $240 including shipping.
