Will your Masters allow you to order bullets?
Can you find powder and primers locally? (Hazmat shipping fees on ordering them will run up the cost considerably.)

Midway is a good source of reloading equipment.


You need a manual. Since Lee equipment is the least expensive, just as well get the Lee book at least to start.

A Lee Challenger press

The press includes a priming tool. You won't need the case lube for a straight pistol cartridge loaded with carbide dies.

The dieset includes a powder dipper and a charge table.

Bullets

The .313" - .314" bullets of 90-100 grains are correct. The 71 grain bullets are for .32 ACP, the heavier ones are for .32-20.

There are a lot of other gadgets and gimmicks that will speed and improve the operation but these will get you started.
