Ah, so that initially seemed high but it is a lot of extra stuff that needs to be bought anyway.  That press also gets some high recommendations. 

New to 10mm here- just bought a Gen 4 Glock 20.  I love the gun but the Underwood ammo is too expensive and too hot to use as range ammo.  So thinking about reloading.  I'd probably try to get the range ammo in the 1100 fps range and just use Underwood for woods ammo, till I am comfortable in my own loading and will try 1200 fps HPs and maybe some penetrator bullets if needed for my woods carry.  Had no failures or issues with the 200 rds of Underwood ammo but it sure left my right hand a bit weaker after that.  So much to learn...

Also recently picked up a Gen 4 G20. It is all stock.  I ran 200 Underwood 180 gr XTPs through it just fine.  The trigger may be a bit stiffer than my 26 and 19, unless I was imagining that.  Since it functioned well, I may stick with the stock spring.  It was throwing brass a bit far.  I really need to reload for mid-level loads and keep the Underwood for protection in the woods.  Fun gun and pretty accurate.

Very useful information to think about and do more research.  I also need to look into a solid bench and all the other things that I will need and create a list.  For the 10mm anyway, it seems you either get really hot rounds or really weak rounds.  Reloading is a must if I want to shoot this gun like I want to.

Great info so far....thanks!  I need to look into some of these options again, including the turret.  Getting perspective from those with experience- is truly invaluable.  Also good advice to start cheap (though I'd still get a decent press).

Hi guys, new member here from the Denver area, and I just found tho forum.   I recently bought a Gen 4 Glock 20 and put 200 res of Underwood 180 grain XTP through it yesterday.  Those rounds are pretty warm but quite addictive.  Since I am not made of money and really would like to shoot more, I was thinking about getting into reloading.  Do you guys think I should learn on a single stage or turret style Lee (or similar) or just go to the Dillon 550.  The 550 kinda freaks me out due to no auto-indexing but I am also mildly paranoid so should be okay.  The 650 seems quite a bit more complex, unless I am just overthinking it. 

So conventional wisdom, I assume, says to start on a single stage, right? I could do that and just spend some time learning, though it is slow going to crank out 1,000 rounds.  I have other hobbies (Jeeping, mountain biking, hiking) so I don't want to spend day after day making ammo but if I go single stage, I still want to buy a really good one that will last, and then get a good progressive in a few months or next year.   

I also have a couple of 9mm Glocks- 26 & 9.  Ammo for 9s is cheaper so not sure if I would save a lot reloading for that.  My main goal is to reload 10mm range ammo to start.  Even the Underwood stuff gets crazy pricey though.  I'd like to shoot 500 rds per month to start.  That equates to almost $300 of ammo if I buy it at retail.  I don't like buying dirty cheap ammo made in the sewers of Chernobyl, so reloading may be my other option.  If this works out, I also like the .357 Sig round a lot.   

I'm starting to ramble a bit.  So which press would you guys recommend? Lee Classic Cast, some turret, or just say eff it and go to the 550?  I'll need to build or buy a bench (have not researched this yet) and everything else that goes with reloading.  Like I said, the only thing that worries me about the 550 is the likelihood of a double charge.  However, I may as well consider it too...especially if it is easy to do a visual powder check in 10mm.   I am open to Lee, RCBS, Forster, & Dillon.  Not sure about Hornady LnL.  Any thoughts and ideas would be appreciated.
