Don't start with an automatic press like the Dillon, just
too much going on to supervise everything if your not used
to reloading.
Basic kit from one of the leading manufacturers is probably
a good start and with a small/medium O-ring press it can be
mounted on a board that clamps to a substantial table or
fitted to something like a Black and Decker Workmate.
Your kit should include :-
A good reloading manual (or even more than one)
Press
Dies and shellholders in each calibre
priming tool*
primer pocket cleaning tools
Shooters scales/Powder scales
Powder thrower*
Mirometer or vernier calipers**
Case trimming tools***
Loading blocks
Case lubricating kit***
* not essential as most presses come with a basic priming
tool, but it helps if you inspect each primer.
** always good practice to check the widths and lengths
of your cartridges, just in case
*** not essential for the pistol calibres but important
for the rifle ones.
Best to read a couple of the good reloading manuals or
articles in magazines. Even better get an experienced
reloader to show you.
