Yes it would. You will probably wind up with a progressive at some point, but you will always have a use for your Rockchucker. I've had mine since by brother and I bought it used in 1971, and I still use it regularly.

A single stage press is ideal for learning the steps - you can learn on a progressive but it is simpler on a single stage.

The "kit" includes a number of things you will need/use; maybe some you don't, but it is still cheaper and faster.

You will receive advice to obtain several reloading manuals and read them before starting. This is good advice. You will also receive offers from experienced reloaders to help you out / get you started. I am near Houston (West of the city) - and would be happy to help.

It it a fun activity, besides allowing you to shoot *lots more* for not-much-more money.
