Can you tell me what else I need to order with this to start reloading rifle immediately? i.e. any extra tools/devices this doesnt come with, etc.?

You'll need to buy a good case trimmer,brass,bullets,powder and primers. You'll also need dies for the caliber you want to reload.
1165616
Calipers, dies and shell holder of calibers you want to load, components for calibers you want to load. A sturdy bench and some bolts to mount it to it. You will need a case trimmer as well.
1165617
The most important item you should have is quality reloading manuals, preferably several. I highly recommend "The ABC's of Reloading" and "Lyman's 49th Edition", as well as various ones from bullet and powder manufacturers. For a wealth of information offered cheerfully by many experienced reloaders, join the FaceBook group "Reloading 101: Learning The Art". "Dumb" questions are welcomed and rudeness is not tolerated by the moderators.

Check out YouTube for rifle reloading tips and techniques. You'll see all of the equipment that you need while learning the techniques.

You will need the dies for you caliber and you will need a shell trimmer. I would get some extra she'll holders so you don't have to switch from primer to press.

Calipers are a must. I would start with pistol loads first if possible. Read "The ABc's of Reloading" I found it at the library. It helped a lot.

You will need a tumbler for cleaning the used shells. Lots of good replies on this thread..calipers and at least 2 reloading manuals.

Yes, this kit has all that you would need. The decapping die "sizing die" is included in this die set. You can tell which one it is because you will see a metal "pin" like protrusion coming from the bottom of the die. In addition, if you are new to reloading, I would highly recommend that you go to Lee Precision's website for instructional videos or you tube on how to safely reload. This is one area where mistakes can be quite unforgiving.

everything is included.the ony extra item's you may need is the bulge buster if your shooting a glock and a lee factory crimp die to go with the bulge buster.

There is a clip that comes out and you reload a spring fed mechanism. I also bought a small funnel reloader which helps as well.

How to maintain the rifle will be in the instructions. You will need to purchase pellets for it, as it does not come with them.

Nothing other than dies for handguns (I reload .40S&W;). I also want to echo George B's comments about getting the 4-die set and another turret. The crimp die, I think, is a must (others may not) and the extra turret makes reloading multiple calibers easier -- one turret per caliber and swap them out as well as the shell casing holder. I did have to buy the rifle riser pass-through die and the auto disk doubling kit for .223. Keep that in mind when/if you reload rifle casings. Good luck and have fun. I really enjoy it once you have everything.

quite a few more items. At bare minimum you will need a set of caliber specific dies with a shell holder, a priming tool with a special shell holder, a powder scale, and of course powder, bullets, primers, case lube and a load guide. To be on the safe side, you should really invest in a quality dial caliper or micrometer for measuring case lengths, neck diameters and wall thickness. How familiar are you with reloading?

It comes with a mount and instructions although you won't need them. Not sure I completely understand the question. I personally would shell out some extra cash for a mount from a company that specializes in mounts i.e. Larue or ARMS. If you're wondering about zeroing it in...I put the red dot on top of the front sight. That gets you close and you can tighten it up at the range.

The scope arrived with the wrong red dot fast fire III. I called Amazon and they corrected the problem on the spot and I had it in two days. I mounted the unit and headed to the range. The Burris XTR works great, zeroed in 4 rounds and is in use for my 3-gun competitions. I have shaved off all kinds of time getting on target quickly. Hope this works for you and good luck. MRH

You will need a riser. I found one at Academy for about $30.00. Works great and scope is very accurate.

It is only a part of a reloading set-up. You need a reloading press and several other things, not to mention primers and powder and bullets. You need to find someone familiar with guns and reloading.

Bought mine on sale 2 yrs ago at Wally's. Came with .177 and .22 barrels. Easy enough to check - just open the box!...Recommend you replace scope. I swapped for a Barska 2-7x32 Air Gun Scope. EXCELLENT pellet gun for the money, especially with a better scope mounted. Really nice wood furniture too. Using wadcutter pellets, I can hit a bottle cap mounted SIDEWAYS - OFFHAND at the 10 meter competition distance on a regular basis!!! To the reviewer who said it was a piece of junk - suggest he read the break-in period info and practice a little more. :-) Performance smooths out at about 300 rounds during which time, I found that wadcutters work best for mine - YMMV.

The RCBS is not a progressive loader as is the Hornady so reloading should be faster and easier. I would read the reviews on Amazon for both before making a decision.

Sounds like a very handy rifle. I am assuming it takes AR type mags. Have you tried contacting the manufacturer of the Mag Lua?? If I can ask, were did you get your Ruger mini ? I have 2 of the Mag Lua. One for my Ar and one for my AK. They are great, best buy I ever made. Wish you luck in finding the one you need.

The loader comes with the Lee instructions which are OK but not really detailed. There's a book right here on Amazon which is a bit better. It's called " The Beginner's Guide to Reloading Ammunition". It has a picture sequence showing the Lee loader. For powders and shot, I use my Lyman and Lee books but an even better source is YouTube. Everyone there has a different opinion but you can find some good suggestions there.

Tommie J. You will get the scope, standard lens covers with elastic bands and a manual. Depending on how you use the rifle, I would recommend replacing the lens covers with flip up lens covers. Butler Creek has a nice pair that works great on them. I now have 3 of the 3-9 x 50 Prostaffs. Great price for a quality product!

Hi there. Mine came with the red dot, quiver and arrows. If I were you, I would buy the new version of this bow fir about the same price, the Recruit Recurve. Much better bow with safety, etc. I sent my rc150 back due to poor quality, and failure to cock due to faulty lock mechanism requiring me to use a pen or pencil to ready the cock mech. Hope this helps.
