Ordering new press---little help

[HEAD0001]

I am ordering a new Hornady progressive press.  I will be loading for the 45 Colt.  I already have an RCBS die set for the 45 Colt.  and I am still deciding about a crimp die.

In addition I want to order:
1.  Shell plate
2.  COP die(powder check)
3.  Powder drop expander

Do I need to order anything else with the press to start reloading for 45 Colt??  Do I need one of the powder tube extensions??  Anything else??  I would like to order it all at one time.  And this is my first progressive, so I want to make sure I have everything  I need to start with??  Tom.

If you are using a progressive you will need a roll crimp die. You will need a powder check die because it is very easy to double or triple load a 45 Colt case.

Which press ? I have one I have not used but it seems Hornady dies were needed to function better. Might be the powder dump or something , I will try to look . I got it when a store was going out of business . Paid less than 50 bucks. It came set up for 44 mag. I mounted it on the bench and some how lost a part and have yet to order it .

  Just FYI. The current issue of 'The Varmint Hunters Asso' magazine has an extensive article on buying,setting up, & using progressive reloading setups. He compares 5 or more of the most common ones.
