The Lee Breach Lock Hand Press Kit seems to be pretty good from what I've seen. A little slower than a mounted press, but I've got a decent amount of spare time, so this is no problem at all.

What I'm really looking for is the most minimalistic *ahem* cheapest setup I can get. I will be reloading mostly .30-06.
Unless you're neck sizing, the Lee Hand Press might be too much effort. YMMV.

So if I were to ask you what is the absolute minimum one would need Besides a Press, Dies, Lyman manual (I'll likely pick up a Hornady as well).
Shell holder (comes with Lee dies, separate purchase with others. Minimal cost in any case).

Scale and a powder measure.

Reloading blocks, to keep your stuff organzied.

Priming tool, either a hand held tool (Lee ergo prime), or a ram prime die (Lee's sucks, Lyman's is better, RCBS' better still).

Since it's a rifle case, caliper and case trimming tool.
