I use the Lee classic cast turret with a mix of dies but I will admit RCBS dies are great for the money

Lee classic turret if just starting out. Others said it you need to fully understand what you are doing, what can happen if things go wrong, how severely you can hurt yourself or others, what you can learn to prevent it. After that move on up to whatever you can afford. The timeless Lee will always have a use I guarantee it.
I appreciate all the replies! I think the Dillon 650/750 is a little out of my budget. At least new. I like the idea of a turret or progressive to grow into at a later date.
What is a good budget to get started? I know there are always better tools, I don’t mind upgrading some tools but some of the kits that come with everything normally come with bottom end tools that could use replacing as soon as you get it. I hate to waste the money
You can start off with used equipment. I have a RCBS 2000, 2 RBCS Single stage, Redding Single Stage, and a Dillon 550. Only one RCBS was bought new. As a Metallic Reloading Instructor, I would recommend a RCBS single.stsge to learn on. Then transition into a progressive later if you choose to do so. Sometimes you can luck out and find deal with someone getting out of the hobby.
