A progesssive press makes you think about several different things at the same time, and can be a little confusing.

Jim,
I would agree with Big . But I would suggest, you get a turret press. That way the dies could be set and you wouldn't have to remove one die to install another.
Start out with very small batches like 5. De-prime and resize the 5 cases. Clean out the 5 primer pockets. Bell and prime each case. Charge each case, weighing each one. Place 5 bullets and seat 5 bullets.
After you get the hang of it you can increase the batch size.
