“Is there a set up you would recommend for someone to start with ... sort of get my feet wet and start the real learning process.”

A good quality single stage press, I’m partial to my RCBS myself, will get you started. I’ve been using mine for over 20 years and it still works like new. But any major brand will suffice.

Reloading manuals-MUST HAVE. Follow the instructions to the letter.

Most manufacturers make a starter kit of some kind. Look into them. Once again, I’m partial to the RCBS brand. You’ll need dies for the calibers you intend to reload. I recommend starting out with straight wall pistol cases until you get the hang of things.

You’ll need powder, bullets, and primers, of course. Good luck finding those.

Let me know If you have any questions.

I cut my reloading teeth on a RCBS Rock Chuck over 50 years ago. After all has been said and done, I've come full circle back to the same rig. I may also pook at a Hornady single stage as I have a pretty good library of Hornady dies.

If I could offer any advice to beginner reloaders, stick with single stage presses. Why? Because it slows you down thus reducing the chances of making catastrophically stupid mistakes. And if you're doing it right, you're checking your charge weight every 10-20 cases or so.
