For reloading pistol, you don't need nearly as much paraphernalia as you do for rifle. For high volume loading, you will eventually want to get a progressive, but I have loaded hundreds of rounds at a time with just a regular single stage press.

I have loaded thousands of rounds of 45 ACP with just the following: (with current Midway Prices - I paid less when I bought them)

Lee Deluxe Carbide 4-Die Set - $39.99
Lee Reloader Single Stage Press - $28.99
Lee Auto Prime - $18.49
Lee Improved Powder Measure Kit (dippers) - $9.79
Lee Universal Depriming and Decapping Die - $10.99

Total equipment cost: $108.25

Eventually you will want a powder measure, scales, better press, funnel, tumbler, etc.
