... to clarify one point --
When I said I'd go for the Rock Chucker, I was referring to the presses in the two kits that you'd mentioned.
Apart from the two presses in the kits that you mentioned, I'd look harder at two Reddings -- the Ultramag and the new turret model. I have an Ultramag and two older six-station turret models and recommend them most enthusiastically as two of the best presses that you can get. If I sell one of my Redding turret presses, you can be sure that I'll ask almost full price for it. It's that good.
Start with the best press that appeals to you, whatever it costs, even if you have to wait a few paydays to add the other basic necessities. Over the long run, you'll find that such an early expense and delay will have eliminated a lot of of later, greater expense and delay. Whatever you do, don't start cheap. (This is the voice of bitter experience -- and if they'll chime-in here, other old-timers will confirm it.)
