The Hornady L-N-L AP is a first rate no hassle press and is the best VFM progressive on the market at present.
However I would go with the others on saying start with a good manual and a cast iron single stage press. Or consider a turret as you can use as a single stage whilst you get the hang of the drill. Reddings T7 is a class act turret
Hornady, Lyman, Redding, RCBS and now Lee with their cast iron press all make good single stage "O" frame presses, the Redding Ultra Mag is a "C" frame but because of its construction is a s strong as the "O" frames, pick your colour.
My recommendation for the best single station press has to go to the Forster/Bonanza Co Ax, a first rate press that looks at the job slightly differently from the others. The only down is that it won't take some of the overly long competition seating dies by Redding, however as Fortser make a good seating die then thats not really a problem.
