I had an appointment today at my Dentist who happens to be an avid reloader. After taking care of business, we started talking shop. Gun shop that is! 
He has been telling me that I should be looking into reloading for a while and I have. I've read some stuff here and on other forums. I've also watched a bunch of instructional videos on you tube.
I told him that I recently sold a few firearms to finance other gun related projects, like reloading and that I needed advice on where to start. We talked about the Lee anniversary kit, the Lee classic loader and some other stuff that I found a too pricey. Then, he scratched his head, pulled a Le Baron catalog from his office desk (no joke!) and he pointed out the RCBS Partner Press reloading kit.
The price was good and the RCBS name inspired confidence so I told him I would check it out. The first thing I did when I came home was to call Le Baron in Ottawa to see if they had any in stock, since they never have crap in store.
"We have one left", came the answer on the line. It was 17h15 and he told me that they were closing in 45 minutes. Well, I almost got a speeding ticket on the way there, but I made it in time. The kit was waiting for me there with my name on the box!
I picked up a #3 shell older a 3-die carbide set in .45 ACP and a Rcbs bullet puller on top of the Partner kit. At the register, the "Club Le baron" membership card paid for itself and even took 5$ off the bill.
I am one happy trucker, now all I need are bullets and some powder!
