Every one will have a good choice of what they have used or use . There is a thread about this subject a little back and for the least amount of money spent to get what you need , the Lee equipment will do just fine . You will find that as you get the hang of it , you may may want more precise equipment .The lee equipment will make fine ammo , after you have seen the benefits of reloading and still want to reload ( it is time consuming to make good ammo , some loose interest ), start saving up for better equipment if you want .
Any good starter kit will give you the basics for reloading . There are a bunch of extras you will need to help you make better ammo and that will bring the cost up , depending what comes with the kit . A bench type press will make things a lot easier than a hand held.
I have used a Lee hand primer for over twenty years and it still works fine , your press should come with some sort of priming mechanism, but you will need dies for what ever caliber you are reloading , some kits can comespecifically set up for a given caliber .Good luck and read up on reloading before you even start ,don't forget to ask questions here before you jump into some thing you have questions about or not sure of .
