Rock chucker kit q's

[ZombieApocolypse]

Im starting to get my ducks lined up and am pricing material to get started reloading. As of right now im thinking of starting with the single stage rock chucker, then eventually moving up to the Dillon 550.

Was wondering if the excessories in this kit are worth purchasing, or should i buy the rock chucker and other stuff that comes with this kit, seperately?


Rock Chucker Supreme Single Stage Press Master Kit

That's the kit I purchased when I started reloading quite a few years ago. Well worth the money.

Even when I had a nice reloading room set up with progressive presses for metallic and shotshell reloading, I always had a couple of single station presses that stayed bolted to the counter. In my case it was a Redding BOSS and a Lee challenger, but the RCBS is a sturdy, dependable tool also.

Been loading for 40 years, still use the Rockchucker...the kit is a good deal to start with as you need all that stuff. Those progressive loaders are great ..but..get used to the single stage for awhile. Slow good quality ammo is better than a pile of crappy stuff on a progressive.

This is my plan ... i've heard nothing but good things about the Rock chucker, but i didnt want to buy this kit, then find out the accessories are of below average standards.


Thanks everyone

I purchased the kit last spring when it came with a $50 mail in rebate. Worth every penny.

If they are, shop around for a best price. I believe the cheapest you can go and get the rebate is $300. I got mine for mere dollars above the minimum after i looked around for about a week

The best price I have seen on the kit is $269.99 at Walmart in Clinton Indiana.

I've hade mine since like 85 works today like it did when I got it.
My kit had the 10-10 powder scale instead of 505 scale.
Back then about $160

Liked the RCBS and supreme kit myself. I know of a guy who has a progressive and wishes he had bought the single stage. Later after getting the hang of things, then a dillion "no bs" warranty and progressive loader is very good.
