Once you are done with all your studying and reading, look at Craigslist. When I started I purchased all my equipment for around 200. It included 2 single stage presses, scale, bullet trays, powder drop, 15 different die sets, funnels and a ton of other stuff.
I just looked at craigslist in my area 2 min ago and there was someone liquidating all his stuff for 300.
My whole idea is get into it for cheap and make sure you enjoy it. The last thing you want to do is spend 1000-2000 on some monstrosity of a press only to find you hate doing it.
That said after I spent the 200 it was only a year before I bought my Dillon Progressive.
