[QUOTE="Blitzfike, post: 2538836, member: 807"] You can do it on the cheap or you can go whole hog. swampratt summed it up pretty well, as to the tumbling media if you go with a vibratory tumbler, I buy the Lizzard Litter at petsmart. a big bag is pretty cheap and works as well as any of the other walnut media. I've not used the Lee turret press, but it should do what you want. A good powder scale is an absolute must and the 505 beam scale from RCBS is a good way to go. I have a few electronic scales and always double check with the beam scale before setting my powder measures. One of the biggest failures in loading 9mm or .40 is not getting the case flare pushed back in enough. The Lee Factory Crimp die removes any concern about that when properly used. One of the best loading manuals is the "Modern Reloading" by Richard Lee. Buy it from [url]www.midwayusa.com[/url] as it is cheaper there than anywhere else I have looked. Good luck and welcome to the hobby. [/QUOTE]
