I pieced together an rcbs rock chucker kit for probably $200 more than the kit costs. Looking back shoulda got the kit. But dinked around with a lee scale and powder thrower ended up taking both back. The single stage is plenty for me since I don't need to make 1K rds at a time. And works for my 45 and my 243. My reason for rcbs is that's what Walmart carries and its the closest place that keeps stuff in stock. Price I don't remember. I will add if you want to prime on the press the rock chucked you have to hand load the primer one at a time it doesn't have a tube.

Some say a lee single stage from even less but my only experience is with the scale and powder thrower. Lyman orange crusher or they're turret press might be worth a look it was almsot got one but like I said Walmart doesn't carry them. Like anything though buy quality.
