As the post say's,I'm looking for one.I've considered getting into reloading, and from the searches in the archives,this seems to be okay.Problem is,they don't have any in stock at WSS in S'toon,and the next step up is Dillon or rcbs??for about $320-330.Salesman tells me,none in stock,none in Calgary,none on order,and they sold about 100 last year.Anyone have any good ideas as to get one near here?Also,I picked up Modern Reloading 2nd ed by Richard Lee...I saw other recommendations for reloading books/manuals,is there one that would compliment this.I plan to reload pistol only for now until the collection grows.40 S&W and 9mm.Any suggestions as to what other gadgets I might need when/if I find this kit??
 
If you can't get WSS in Saskatoon to ship it from another shop, just order direct from SIR Mail order or Higginson's. They're both Canadian based retailers.

You can pick up Hornady's magazine/manual, and it'll have a few loads in it. This is only useful if you want a hardcopy as I think pretty much all of the loads are also available on their website. Some of the other vendors also have loads listed on their websites.
 
I've also had a hard time finding Lee products in Canada so I've been ordering from US suppliers (try Kempf Gun Shop) and even(horror of horrors!) Lee Precision directly. I find that most Canadian retailers (especially Wholesale Don't Got It) just don't give a damn about keeping things in stock. One or two stock orders per year just doesn't cut it.
 
For an extra $20 or so you can get the LEE BREECH LOCK CHALLENGER PRESS KIT. " This kit replaces the popular 35th Anniversary Kit features the same components as the 50th kit but we have replaced the Safety Prime with the Auto-Prime and a set of Auto-Prime shell holders. This kit is for those who prefer to prime off of the press."

Since I was also looking into getting one of these kits, is this one any better than the Anniversary kit ??????????
