$65 for the sizing die
$20 for priming compound

I can't seem to find any load data or even what powder to use.

I was wondering the same thing. No published load data from powder manufacturers etc.
A bit concerning

I watched one of the Videos for a few minutes. I think I saw a bottle of Pyrodex.

You then wipe down the salad spinner and carefully put it back and make like you don't know what it is (in case anyone asks).......... :rofl:

"...the kit includes load data for several powders, including 700X and Unique as well as for Hogdon’s Pyrodex P black powder substitute. "

Just think you drop that towel you wiped off the salad spinner with and "Bang!"

I sort of lost interest in it after a friend of mine had tried to reprime some cartridges using the same priming compound and the priming compound didn't work for him. It would not work as advertised.
