You will need a tool head for every different round that you are going to load. I like to have 2 powder measures so that I can leave the large volume drop in 1 and the small in the other, not nessary if you do not load enough to be switching back and forth all the time.
SAVE YOURSELF SOME MONEY. You only need a cartridge conversion kit for each different size case head you load for. ie. If you load for .308, .30-06, .243, .22-250 ect, you only need 1 cartridge conversion kit, then get a powder funnel for each round, funnels are cheap compaired to the whole conversion kit. Then you just leave the powder funnel in the tool head for that round. You can save more money if you load 2 round of the same cal. that are close to the same lenth by useing the same funnel.
If you load cast bullet in your handgun the Dillon dies are well worth the money as you can pull a safty pin and drop the guts out of the die and clean out the bullet lube without takeing the die out of the tool head or the tool head out of the press.
I think that within the first 3 mo. that you have the press you will wander how you ever lived without it.
