Here is the least expensive and an classic powder at to go for those 2 calibers, Lee Loaders.

The hand press will do fine for those . I would still go with a rigid press.

I load both those calibers.
Get a single stage press kit
With all the tools and start simple.
Simple is good.
Try a easy load with a forgiving powder
Unique is a great starter powder
There are many.
Carefully prep your brass and reload your shells and shoot them.
Work on consistency
Do your best to get the same amount of powder in each shell.
Don't miss fill ANY.
Set bullets and crimp.
It will take a while to get used to it but you have so many options for your ammunition.
Good luck buddy

These calibers can easily be loaded with the hand press or any other small frame press.

My recommendation still is the classic turret, because it's just the most versatile press I know, ant the spent primer disposal system is just great. If you take that press, use LEE 4 die carbide sets.

If you don't load too many rounds, the hand press would also be great to start with. It was my first reloading press, and I still use it and like it. Perfect for on stage load development or small batches. I suggest using 3 die carbide sets, and seat and crimp in one step, because I'm lazzy and don't want to change dies more often than necessary. Only downside is the spent primer container inside the press stem, which will only hold about 20 small primers before it becomes difficult to empty. To do so, you have to remove the shell holder and die, and turn the press upside down. Apart from that, it's a great little press, and there is no other press that lets you see and learn reloading so close and from so many angles (litteraly )

I went with the Lee Classic Turret. My reasoning was simple. It is a simple system than can be ran in single stage or you can take advantage the the turret. I normally use it as a single to deprime. Then run through the tumbler to clean. Then setup as a turret and load them up. The biggest thing is to read all you can and really know what you are doing at each step.

So many suggestions that may be we scared the guy off?

Hope He's just thinking over the options. My suggestion would be to avoid the smaller cheaper presses like the Pardner and the Lee C press. At least get the Lee anniversary kit with the Challenger press or the Classic Turret kit. Either one comes with most everything you need minus the dies. Either one is strong enough to full length resize cases and not start feeling the linkage have wear, they both use the excellent Safety Prime system, turrets are easy to swap out to leave the dies in place, the breach lock system of the Challenger allows you to set the dies in collets and leave them set even when you remove them, and they will both still be in use years down the road once you outgrow the little single stage presses.

Biggest suggestion though is to buy and read and then re-read a copy of "The ABC's of Reloading". I bought mine from Amazon and I still pull it down and thumb through it time to time.

Heck, I got nerviest just reading the post. I think about where I was a year ago when I started reloading
and where I'm at now with my equipment and some knowledge. If it weren't for my father in law and you guys here on the forum. I would of blew some thing up, or hurt my self by now. I'm glad he came here to the right place to get some answers. I just told a guy the other day on you tube he should come over here and get some answers for his questions on getting started in to reloading. I sure hope he took my advice.
