A lot of times kit's don't have silly shit like check weights

Only this channel could put out a video where they have a bunch of tools and parts laid out on a table and all they do is talk about them….and I watch the whole video. I don’t even reload (yet) and I still love watching this channel

That Gen 6 powder dispenser is awesome! Very accurate for a more budget friendly dispenser.

After watching this for the last almost year and watching a lot of your videos I pulled the trigger and bought this kit. I got it from Midsouth Shooters Supply for 629. They had them in stock. Super excited to get this, and following along with Guy in the reloading basics series.

This is what I've been waiting for! I was thinking about this kit.

I bought this set last year. Pretty awesome package and by far the most value for your money when compared to other similar packages! I also put a small chunk of foam inside bottom of inertia bullet remover...saves points from getting smashed on spire point bullets!

Looks like a great kit. I’ve used the tumbler for years and had to replace this year. Bought the same Lyman 1200 again. If I was just starting into reloading then I would be very interested in this kit.

Great job, I will be looking forward to the upcoming video's showing the kit in use 😃

Just wanted to say thank you for giving a ballpark on the price!! All info helps make good decisions!

First timer (newbie). I am going to BUY this kit!!! Thank you for the video - appreciated!!!

The vast majority of my reloading and bullet casting tools are Lyman. I started with and currently using the T-Mag II Master Deluxe kit because it had all the basic tools needed. Loading dies are a mix of manufactures due to either availability or offerings. My most recent Lyman acquisitions have been the Gen 6 powder measure/dispenser and their bullet lube/sizer. The Lyman American 8 turret press is my next upgrade. I also have their case-prep machine which takes a lot of the drudgery out of case prep. The coolest part is that the Lyman tools are compatible with most RCBS accessories. I have both Lyman and RCBS bullet lube/size dies that work in the Lyman sizer. RCBS & Lyman case prep tools are cross-compatible with the case prep machines, bullet moulds and handles and are cross compatible making it easy to mix and match according to your needs. My casting pot, ladle and ingot mould are Lyman. Just a note to left-handers, the Lyman ladle is tapped on both sides for the handle. Ladles from other manufacturers I've examined are not.

Really digging the idea of comparing different reloading manuals. I think that would be a good video. Would like to see a video on that powder dispenser/scale unit.

Would love to see a compete review of the gen 6 powder measure!

Tip for using that tumbler, put a shower cap over the top when in use. The lid is multi purpose and works well, but will get dust everywhere while polishing brass if it is not covered by a shower cap or an equivalent.

I just bought everything to reload, wish I saw this FIRST !! , thanks for great video !

Outstanding. All you need to reload equipment is in this box.

The kit is a great bargain. The price of the press and the powder dispenser, if bought separately pretty much costs the same as the entire kit. I happen to use the press and the gen 6 powder dispenser for reloading rifle cartridges. Both work fantastic and I'm genuinely happy with them both. I don't use the on board primer system because I prefer to use hand primers. Had been using RCBS hand primers for a long time and recently picked up the Frankford arsenal hand primer. So far it's very very nice. But I love the Lyman T8 press. 6.5 CM, 308 and 30-30 love the press as well. Great video as always.

Thank you. I had requested that just the other day. Great turnaround. I would like to see you take a fired case through most of not all the way through the process.

To be honest, new to reloading, looking for this kit in europe, hope i'll find it ! thanks a lot for the video, quite helpful !!

That looks like an excellent selection of equipment for someone starting out, at a great price.

That is a FANTASTIC looking kit!!!

This is a great looking kit for someone looking to get into the hobby. And at a great price!!

I recently purchased a Lyman Brass Smith Ideal press (brand new for $45!) The ram would grind through the body opening until it passed the primer ejection port. I called Lyman about the problem and without question, they told me they were going to send me a new ram for the unit. I was shocked they didn't even want me to send the unit to them. A+ customer service from them too!

i love the older manuels that even included the test rifle and specs.

Definitely looking forward to a reloading manual comparison

Just purchased this kit as a novice I cant wait to see how this kit goes

Yes please do a follow up video of continued content thank you for everything

Nice work, I haven’t started yet to hand load. But I’ll take some of advice onboard. Great work bud.

Lyman is the best bang for the buck, good sturdy built to last ! C/S is awesome and will take care of any issues

This is awesome! I’m just getting into reloading and I’m thinking this is the kit I’m going to get.

A great kit savings on buying everything together.

Just order my first reloading kit. And this is the one!

nice to enjoy the reloading and custom load development in these expensive ammo days. but hundreds and hundreds to make economically ammo loads. understand that reloading provides such enjoyment.

Can't wait to get one.

I just picked one of those universal case trimmer...... The best thing ever.... I have been using the Lee deluxe quick trim and dies. They are nice too but I am digging the lathe style better.

Not a big fan of kits but I am a big fan of Lyman and they knocked it out of the park here. I have almost all of the products that come with the kit. Very few kits come with things you dont have to or will want to replace. Honestly if they would upgrade to a digital caliper and give you the option to get the Lyman express case prep station and/or a wet case tumbler, all you literally would just need components and nothing more. That would easily be the best and most complete kit ever offered. I have used my 8 turret press and the gen 6 powder measure and they are flat out awesome. If your new to reloading or dont have a lot of money I am telling you I dont think you can find a better kit to start rolling your own.

Keen to see the manual comparison video

Still made in the good 'ol U.S.A. . Good stuff!

I’m looking forward to it

Well now I know what setup I’m buying next

I will be waiting on guy's reloading manual video , I'm researching loads for my sister's 380 in Speer and Hornady books although mine are a few years old now

My thought? Use a powder that gives more case volume, not something like TiteGroup or Bullseye. Less chance of a double charge. Pretty sure that I chose Power Pistol for my 380 ACP loads.

I’m going to check this out

Now that’s a nice kit. Doesn’t look cheap but man that’s a decent set up

Yes, I was just looking at that kit. I'm single stage at this time.

I just reloaded my first rifle round tonight.... only a dummy round. Checking the OAL to the lands...... 168gr A-max 308

Great value for great gear

It is a great kit I bet. It has the calipers with it , (some do not). Its better than most, because of the electronic powder thrower vs the manual ones most have. I'm partial to the Redding T-7 but the Lyman All American 8 is right up there too. I've gotten to where I only buy Lyman Pistol dies. Lyman pistol dies come with 2 types of bullet seating stems! Most brands want $10.-20.00 for the xtra one, and you will need it when U least expect it, and have to order one and wait. Also Lyman kinda revolutionized the industry with thier famous "M" dies, and they work very well. Rifle dies are another thing though. I love to support these 100-200 yr old US companies, many who have been there since the start, and are still making their core products in the USA.

I love how all reloading KZreadrs say "don't use these loads! This is a new cartridge and I'm working this load up a "certain way".... or something like that.Then every viewer and their brother goes out and starts their ladder with that load!!! :)

I just got this press over the weekend. Plan to set it up as my 300 blackout conversion station. Might make for good content for the channel, converting 223 brass to 300 blackout.

In at #424 with the 👍... Thanks for putting this content up!

I am interested in this kit as I don't have a reloader yet and this looks like a great way to get started in reloading. I am a beginner and this kit looks great for starting. So please give us an in-depth look at it.

Liked, subscribed!

I’m looking to buy, and this will be my first time reloading. Congrats on the big win.

I have several of these tools, brand new (vibrating case cleaner, bullet puller, calipers, etc.) so I would either have to put them together and sell/repurpose them and just get the kit or decide to piece the rest together, I'll have to weigh the cost difference and let that decide. I'm pretty sure that's the press I'll get, no matter what. I'm just trying to not spend $1,000 to get started reloading, which is easy to do. One good thing for the bullet pulling hammer is to keep one in am expanded survival kit, like I have in my truck. When you're hunting, etc., should you become stranded and need a quick fire in perhaps unfavorable weather, just pull a few bullets and use the powder to get the tinder going and even fire the primed case (depending upon weapon/caliber, a pistol works great) into the pile to ignite the powder. 2 minutes and little effort let's even a one handed (in case of injury, etc.) start a fire. It works.

Great video Gavin, as a newbie reloader (still looking for primers!) I wish I had found this kit before I bought most of it from Lyman as individual components. My apologies if you have covered this in another video, but as a brand new reloader I'm thoroughly confused by the many options for measuring and delivering powder. Could you do a video for us on this? Lyman has a Brass-Smith Drum Powder Measure (which you covered and I purchased) along with the Poweder Trickler, Touch-Screen Powder System, Metal Reloading Scale..... Do I use one of these, two of them, all of them? When you first demonstrated the All-American 8 Turret Press (which I also grabbed) you used a RCBS drum-style powder measure that auto-loaded powder as one station on the press. But apparently the Lyman powder loader can not be used on the All-American 8 in the same way? Most of the rest of the process seems clear, but the vast number of powder tools and methods has me completely confused. Help please!

I would like to see a Turret Press Show Down like you did with all of the single stage units. Using the same test and standards. Redding T7, Lyman AA8, Dillon BL550, RCBS, Lee, ect. Even the crazy priced Zero Press.

Nice video. It might just be me but I have never had good results with Lyman reloading equipment. The case trimmer I had drifted constantly and the tumbler drum literally collapsed in the first use. RCBS and Dillon is all I buy at this point.

Just got this kit and had 75 off so 525 got to love that. Can't wait to watch, still getting powder and stuff to gather for my self to get started so I can't wait hope to learn something here for me to use with this kit ✔ 👀 🇺🇸

Looks like a good setup, can't reload much without primers though.

I would like to see a video comparing that kind of press to the zero press and any other similar ones

Getting into reloading is worse than a drug addiction... and more expensive. But it's so challenging and gratifying. Just do it!

I love your reloading video! How could I get your reloading bench plans. I’ve move to a new home and starting over on reloading. I really need a reloading bench. Thanks Vern

I own several individual pieces from Lyman, but don't really hear of people being Lyman "die hards" like I do RCBS or even the budget Lee. It kinda surprises me as I've yet to run into a piece from Lyman I wasn't happy with. I'm anxious to see what Guy does with this.

Lyman rocks :)

I wonder if Vista Outdoors would change the primer issue if more outdoor stores would list CCI, Federal, ad Remington primers as discontinued like all my local stores have.

I’ve seen the gen 6 scale reviewed on other channels, but would like to see your opinion on it. Have thought about getting one myself.

Perfect timing as I am starting from scratch, all over again. I was looking at this kit today. I don’t know whether it’s better to source specific tools from various companies, to get what I know and like, or just use what’s in a kit like this and get by. I’ve been looking at various turret presses vs single stage presses. The Redding T-7 vs Lyman American 8 ??? Redding seems to have have more aftermarket support. I use to use a Dillon 550 and a single stage with tools from various manufacturers, but everything is waaayyy more expensive than what I paid for things 15 yrs ago. For pistol I’d be loading 9mm, .40s&w, 357/38, and 45. Then for rifle .223, 6.5 CM, 6.8 Western, and 300 win. That’s a lot of money in the Dillon system!! I’m not familiar with using Lyman products other than your case trimmer. I always preferred Redding, Hornady and Sinclair tools. What are your thought about Lymans quality and accuracy? How much of these products are made in the USA, and not China? What website was this available for $599?

Really have to figure out what you want first, then price the stuff. I’m happy with my Hornady single stage and Hornady progressive (ladder took some fiddling to get it to work well, but now it does, paid $150 used a couple of years ago). A couple of items off the top of my head: 1. 300 win mag is a pretty long cartridge. Make sure the press you get can handle that length. I’ve never researched this specifically but have seen presses labeled that they can handle up to a certain length. 2. Think back to your previous reloading days. Were you loading just to plink or doing some serious hunting/precision work? If it’s the former and you aren’t picky, the kit is the most economical. Do you still have any of the items in the kit? If you’re like many reloaders, you’ll slowly start upgrading. Better powder measure, better case trimmer, precision measuring tools, better scale/laboratory balance. 3. I’d make a list of what you need. Press (progressive or single stage), dies, manual, powder measure, scale/balance, powder trickler*, primer tray, tray, storage containers for ammunition, tumbler, calipers, case gauges*, bullet puller, case lube, case prep tools, priming tool if not done on the press, tool to remove military primer crimps*, chamfer/deburring tool. I went with the Hornady single stage kit, but I was brand new to reloading, and if I could do it over after a decade of reloading, I would probably find a gently used press and pick out the specific accessories (used or otherwise). There isn’t really a shortcut. I’d list out everything you want/need, see if one of the kits covers it. Keep in mind that this channel really doesn’t say much of anything overtly negative about equipment. Gavin is very knowledgeable, but I’d argue he doesn’t really “review” stuff, if you know what I mean. It’s a good place to start though with detailed overviews of products/product comparisons.

I would get a cheap single stage (under $100). It will make ammo just as accurate as anything else(if you do your part). Then if you want volume get a progressive. You will NOT get volume on a turret if you actually plan on shooting a lot.

My first press was a Dillon 550b, then I got the RCBS RC2 for side work. I used the 550 and the RC for every cartridge I listed, and there wasn’t a bit of difference in accuracy on paper between the two. We shoot to 600yds regularly, so a descent amount of precision is necessary. I’m not interested in a single stage press at this time. Once you use a Dillon it’s hard to go back to something that slow. But at $1000 just to set up a press with a single cartridge is out of my budget these days. I added up everything I had and it would cost me over $3000. So now I’m looking at the Lyman A8 vs Redding T7, or maybe a distant 3rd the Dillon BL550. I just don’t know if Lyman has the quality and the after market support of Redding product.

This would be awesome IF WE COULD BUY SOME PRIMERS !

Alright, so i bought this set Mine did not come with a powder funnel It does not come with shell holders It does not come with cleaning media The case lube is awful, and i could not get it to work for more than 50 cases without getting a stuck case (imperial sizing die or some hornady one shot is a must) There is a calibration weight, but there are no check weights The turret has roughly 2 thousand slop in it (you can account for this) It comes with 1 caliper, but I'd recommend still buying a 2nd one That was the bad Now the good The case trimmer works very well The turret press besides the slop in the turret head is very consistent and had no issue bumping 2 thousands for full-length sizing and no issues getting consistent seating depth The tumbler works great, and when tightened down tite, it's really quiet for what it is Gen 6 is very adequate (I'd still get check weights) The hand tools are fantastic The hand primer is very good

Good set of equipment - lot of people who buy this kit will probably still be using much of the gear 5-10 years later

How about a comparison of the reloading turrets...T-7 vs All American 8 vs Lee Turret press

Seems like a great deal for someone looking to get into it. How does it work for pistol rounds? Time consuming?

Dang, should have watched a week ago just got a used rock chucker. Still sourcing the other bits and pieces. A least I know now what to look for.

The Lyman book has some good load data. But if you are just starting you probably don't know that the powder companies publish their own load data, much of it on their websites.

Any update to the Progressive Press showdown?

What other brands of die can be use with this lyman press? Or what is the best die kit for 6.5 creedmoor.. tnks nice video

Have you had any primer issues with the priming system I’ve seen some videos on it and some loaders have trouble with it love to hear your thoughts on it thanks good video

It would be helpful to have a list of everything you need to reload say 6.5 CM with this kit. I mean what else exactly do you need to be able to actually create a round to shoot. Dies, Powder, primers etc... and the prices so we would have an actual idea what it would cost to be able to start reloading. Thanks.

Interesting.

I'd like to know what the best reloader is for high productivity but great for a beginner aswell

Lizard litter is crushed walnut, and inexpensive at Petsmart.

Does anyone know about concentricity in turret presses like these?

Lyman is advertising the 51st edition now.

Ahhh... how about all of it! I have been trying to find a "kit" to start. But, have hard that it's a waste of money...

Big box of Walnut at Harbor Freight is much cheaper than corn cob and works better imho. IDK, though. The Lee kit is much cheaper and has all you need I'd like to see a comparison between the two. I had no idea that a kinetic puller could use the standard shell holders! I also use a rock maple board to whack against. BTW I have many reloading manuals. Lyman Cast and standard are the ones I use the most.

So is this everything needed to get started? Besides components and dies?

Do you know of any progressive shot shell reloader that has multiple gauge dies

🇺🇸🇵🇪🇵🇷😎 thanks, right on time!!🤔

Does it include primers?

Please complete the list of other components necessary to reload 5.56 and 45acp. 1. Dies 2. Powder 3. Bullets 5. Brass 6. Primers I am sure I am missing something because I have never started a project where I didn't need to make at least a second trip back to the store fore something.

$899.99 CDN is a deal for this.....if I wasnt already setup I would be buying this.

Lyman should have included their power case trimmer.

Hey Gavin I’ve been reloading since 1969 on my RBCS Single stage rock crusher and I’ve been thinking about going to a turret press I may have to check in to that Lyman press do they stay accurate or will they get wobble in them overtime.

@kenwiltsie6920

I always prefer the electric tricklers, they’re always dead on accurate and when you know how to fiddle with them you can get a good consistent charge with any powder. And they match perfect with a turret because you’ll have an exact charge waiting to dump instead of something that’s .1-.5 off. I guess progressive reloading it’s not really tenable but unless you need to load thousands a week is a progressive really the right tool to beat factory ammo in performance?

Is there anything delaying the progressive press shootout? Thanks Gavin. Greetings from Brazil.

Wanted to know how you're using the Quick Slick to make it work good for you? I bought that a couple years ago and had nothing but troubles with it. Cases got stuck too many times depriming and resizing 300 blk something terrible. Then I made your recipe for lanolin and isopropyl alcohol lube and that stuff was awesome. I kept the Lyman "Quick Stuck" as others have called it because I hate tossing it when I paid so much for it. Thanks!
