There is just such a vast array of options, so I thought I’d chuck out here and see if anyone was kind enough to chime in!

Forgive me if this isn’t the “right” mindset of approach to have!

As a casual / minimalist reloader:
Is “all I would need” something like the Lee Hand Press kit + a set of Dies for the calibre?
- assuming I would reload for initially only the brass fired from my rifle

Really just keen to hear what the cheapest, most direct, no-frills way of getting into it that doesn’t necessarily cost $1100+ for a kit set and then you need X, Y, Z extra tools thereafter…

Cheers in advance!

IMO this is better than the Lee classic loader. A set of Lee RGB dies will be fine. But again really need scales. Stay away from cheap electronic scales. Beams are much better.
