Planning on getting one, I'd like to hear some opinions on what people use, how much $, features etc.

 Lee is the cheapest but takes a bit of practice and you might not read the numbers the same each time Nei is quite expensive but gives you a repeatable reading. There are others available but these are the ones I've used.I do NOT neccasarilly endorse either.

I have the LBT hardness tester and it appears to work fairly accurately and is easy to use.
