    I have just been gathering a bit of reloading gear together myself and $4000 later Im getting close.

    In the current climate probably not a good time to start as its a sellers market and there is a shortage of everything but enough $ will buy anything.

    Only advice would be to buy good quality but others on here will be able to help you better.

    Good luck.

    Lee make some good gear. Their single stage presses are awesome value for money and are right up there in quality. I spent a lot of time because I'm bloody minded getting an old Pro 1000 working properly after someone gave it to me in bits in a box but I would not wish one of those on a beginner. The Dillon 550 is twice the price but a superb bit of kit for volume. All my rifle loading I do on a combination of an old Lee 3 hole Turret, a Lee Challenger single stage cast aluminum press and a Lee heavy cast iron classic single stage. Only really need one but hey.... The old 3 hole turret is amazing for what it can put out for a cheap old press.
