Time is meaningless. I think I have accomplished more in two years than other people have in ten, mainly due to me having no life and spending every spare minute researching Don't know too many reloaders who have made their own dies or built their own annealing machines.

If you need to know, I have been at the game for some 36 years.

Please don't validate... I love the internet, but cross ref out of caution...you don't post silliness (I love posting silliness), but valid n' applicable info. I've learned lots, but was surprised you started with a kit only 2 years ago. th'sall folks....

gettin' back...
Do both kits prime the same way? Any perks to the secondary equip with one over the other?

As mentioned; I've been planning to reload for ages, and only recently (about a year) started gathering equip to do so. I regret not just getting a kit. If I saved a nickel doing it, I lost ages in actual reloading time. So desperate was I to press my own I re'furbed a buddy's press to do it.

I prefer hand priming tools to press mounted ones....much faster and better feel when seating.

I have always used a single stage press & a hand priming tool (RCBS) for rifle reloading. However when I used to load for hand guns I preferred a progressive or turret press with automatic primer feed.

I was actually thinking the challenger kit just so i can prime off the press.

I have the challenger kit. Good that it has most of the goodies I needed to get started. Less than a year in I upgraded my scale and the next thing I upgrade will be the powder thrower.

I also much prefer using a hand priming tool. I primed on the press for two years because that's all I had at the time. But if I had to start over, I would certainly get a hand priming tool right away.
