Default Reloading starter kit

I am looking to get a reloading kit to start reloading. I'm thinking of a rock chucker supreme master re-loading kit.

The best price I've come up with is

I'm wondering if anybody can point to local suppliers who might have this for a reasonable price?

Wholesale sports (I'm in Edmonton) has

This seems to be a tad steep for me to swallow compared to an average US price of well under $300.

I will mail order if necessary, but I'd rather support locally. I will not, however, pay almost 100% more to support local stores.

So... suppliers anyone?

Thanks

Rod

My first loading kit I mail oredered from G.L. Herters, in the late 60's. 39 bucks got me , a press, poweder measure, powder scale and 2 sets of dies along with some other assorted tools, some of which I still use today.

$430 and 479 respectively. I think I'll hold off and see if local prices will come down with the new currency reality. If not, I'll order out of the States, much as that will be an inconvenience.

Thanks

Default Reloading kit

Iron Brew,

SIR has the Rockchucker listed for $180 (not sure if it's the Master or not though).

I'm interested in reloading shotgun shells, as I've never done it before any advice would be appreciated, or suggestions on reloading kits.
I'm looking to load both steel & lead, I've heard steel is more difficult, is this correct?

Thanks,
Phased1

What calbers do you plan on reloading Ironbrew? The reason I ask is I have a bit of extra stuff that I do not reload anymore, and you can have it.
