I am about to dive into the world of reloading and after reading the ABC's of Reloading I have narrowed the press down to two...I am looking at either the Lee Classic Turret Press Reloading Kit or the Lee Deluxe Turret Press Reloading Kit.

Does anyone have any experience (pros or cons) with either of these???

both are ok, Lee is what I started with...went to a Dillon 650 after a year or so, if I had it to do again I would have just went with the Dillon, a lot more $$ but used reloading presses are cheap and I sold mine cheap.  So I would try to buy used and then save up fro the Dillon if you done have the cash.

Go with the Hornady LNL AP. Easier to work with overall. More versatile. Can be used as a single stage if desired or to get used to the loading process.

Of those two, the Classic Turret.  The auto advance feature can be disconnected to use in single stage while you learn each step of the process.

Go with the Classic Turrent. The base is cast iron. The deluxe is aluminum. Just stronger . I have been using one for 3yrs now and a few thousand rounds of 9mm, .38.,.40 s&w, .45 and .223 have

been made without a hitch. Easy to learn on. Can be used as a single stage by removing index rod. Caliber changes take about 3 min. with extra turrents. I have found extra turrents for 6-9 bucks.

A good press in my opinion.
