Briman hit the nail on the head.

I believe a person should buy good equipment from the start. I recommend the RCBS Master Reloading Kit. I also recommend a digital scale & thrower.

If I were to buy everything I needed/wanted to start reloading with today? I could buy it all for just under $1000.[&:]

I do not think I will ever save money reloading. I reload so I can customize my ammo for my gun.
