Hornady is a quality make but you mention 9 mil amongst you calibers and if you want lotsa 9s on hand Hornady Red while good ain't your color Dillon Blue is.Yes more expense but if you buy quality once it saves in the long haul.The 550B&650 will handle your Rifle needs.

I broke my cheap Lee press last year and replaced it with a Hornady. It is a much better press and the collets work great. Make sure you go ahead and get extra of them. You will need them for every die you have if you want to take advantage of the quick change feature. PM me if you have more questions.

All of us were newbies once. Brass should be uniform of same make.Cases should be full length sized to learn on.Buy factory to compare loads with.Chonograph would be money well spent. Buy one die set and learn with it.Read loading manual 3 times before starting...SLOWLY LOAD Yes i "yelled" but go slow no distractions.Most of us have 20+ years so ask anything.

After you've read that manual 3 times, get another and do the same.

I bought dies for 223 308 30 06 and 7mag..gotta get my 9mm...ive just heard mixed reviews on loading glock19 about case bulge..but thinking about starting with 9mm or 223 to get some time in then move up...Another question i wanna load hornady sst in my deer rifles but they don't group the factory loads. Do yall think i can make them group by loading my own? Yes you can better your accuracy by adjusting type/charge weight of powder and with your bullet seating depth. Adjust one factor until you see an improvement in accuracy then adjust another factor until the accuracy improves. These two adjustments will give you the most results. Trying different brass and primers will yield minimal improvements. Also, belted magnums can be tricky when setting up your sizing dies. If you set the shoulder back to much when sizing, you can have case head separation. I've seen someone blow out the cases on the second loading because he set the shoulder back too much. I tried to explain this to him but he did not seem to comprehend the concept of headspace.

So don't full size the 7mm..ive seen videos were they set the die to just bump the shoulder back were it fits in the chamber good. I think id rather just neck size or bump the shoulder back on the hunting rifles. I no full size and back to spec on 9mm and 223

That's good rifle advice,now far as Glocks case bulge issue stick to start charges and lengths.Which powder,primer,bullet for 9 mil? Stay away from Lead in glock 9s.
