Appreciate all the responses everyone, you guys have saved me a good amount of money and hassle. I'm going to go with the press and individual accessories like the RCBS 505 instead of one of the kits.
I will also stay away from Unique. I had picked it because read that's it's a good do-it-all revolver powder. I'd appreciate a suggestions for powder good for midlevel loads in both .38 and .357 (eventually).
I would be loading .308 for an M1A Scout. I know there's a lot more complexity to loading rifle rounds - especially for gas guns - so I'm holding off on that until I get good at loading pistol first.

Loading for the 12 gauge is just an idea I had, since I like the idea of being able to reload every caliber I have in house. It's not really a necessity and it's the lowest-priority item on the list.I may have missed the reasoning for loading 12 gauge. But if you aren't loading for competition and shooting a lot, save yourself time and money and buy them. The cost to reload shotgun vs buying makes the labor fruitless IMHO. YMMV.
What .308 you loading for? How many rounds a month?
Think of more later...lol

Thanks for letting me know, I thought they were just marketing names for the same thing.The Kempf Gunshop kit has the Auto Disk instead of the Auto Drum - the Auto Disk is a disaster, the Auto Drum a much better tool, comparatively. The Kempf page has an option to upgrade to the Auto drum though, so if you go with either kit, do NOT get the Auto Disk. The Auto Drum isn't good compared to the RCBS or the Hornady tools, but it's far and away better than the Auto Disk
