    My standard answer for this question is: Are you likely to be reloading for quite a few years, or are you testing the waters to see if it is for you?

    If the answer is the latter, then the Lee kit is Okay. I found the scales a bit shonky - the beam would sometimes stick on the pivot - potentially dangerous.

    If you know it's going to be a long term thing then buy a really good press and a good set of beam scales. Then spend a few bucks on the basic accessories (chamfer tool, loading tray, etc). Add die set and appropriate shellholder (Lee sets often include one) and away you go. You'll add other bits and pieces if you really get into it.

    Or like someone suggested, get friendly with someone who is experienced and you'll learn loads. Or at least whether it's something you'll enjoy doing.
