The reason I think a kit would be good, even if each component is not the greatest, is if I want to upgrade I will have something to base that off of. This way I will be missing the least amount of equipment with kit purchase.

Having said that, between the rock chucker kit, hornady locknload kit, and the lee breechlock kit, is there any significant reason to choose one over the others? Ideally i would buy most of what i need used, but that does not some as feasible now with the way things are.

Most expensive looks like the rcbs rock chucker kit. I think I'd like a digital scale at some point, just easier for me.

Also the chronograph is not a bad recommendation at all, I have been wanting to get one anyway just to see where I am actually at with my factory ammo.
