Try and get hold of the twelfth edition of the Speer reloading manual. A thorough read of this will start you off on the right foot.

I would also recomend the Lyman for some one just starting out. I have a copy of their re loading manual and the cast boolit reloading guide and think they are excellent.
I also have lots of other re loading manuals but I still refer to the Lyman and its not expensive to buy.

If you are going to be re loading for full bore rifle calibers do not waste your money on a Lee hand press.

SimG is our resident Lee fan and proselytiser.

The lee hand press is a good piece of kit for the money but I concur with Dave, I would not recommend it for handloading many centre fire rifle rounds especially if you are FL resizing, unless of course you have arms like Popeye.
