I’d say it depends on what caliber(s) you plan on loading for
But for the most part the two valuable items in that group are the press and tumbler
The rest is, eh...

If youre not too worried about precision then i’d say yes
If youre looking for precision then i’d pass

That is a bargain for sure. I am not a fan of Lee, but a lot of guys use it with success. For 100 bucks, and wantI got to get started, I’d buy it. A press alone is going to cost you more than $100. Haven’t bought a tumbler for 20 years, have a Lyman and the damn thing still works great. Would guess a decent tumbler will approach $100.

I agree. I’d pick it up if I were to have to start over. $100 seems like a good deal. Some of that stuff I wouldn’t use but the bulk I could have used when I started.

Buy some good dies and I bet you can get some darn precise ammo with it. Might be slow but that is fine starting out

Not a bad price for a startup set. There's a couple things there you may not use and a couple tools you'll still need to get, we all have our own ideas about upgrades.
