I'm new to reloading. I've never so much as pulled the handle on anything.
Would this kit be a decent start? I'm not looking to spend too much but I also don't want to be upgrading a month from now and wishing I'd just spent the money the first time.
It's the Lee 50th Anniversary single stage kit on ebay for $99

Here is the description for those who don't want to click the link...
For sale is a brand new, in original factory packaging from Lee, the 50th Anniversary Reloading Kit (#90050). This kit includes the new Breech Lock Challenger "O" Frame Press and one Breech Lock quick-change bushing. You get a complete powder handling system, with the most convenient Perfect Powder Measure, plus the Lee Safety Scale, one of the most accurate and safest powder scale, and fill your cases with the included powder funnel. Case preparation tools include a cutter and lock stud to trim your cases. Also included are a Lee chamfer tool and a tube of premium sizing lube. A small and large pocket-cleaning tool completes the case preparation package. You also get the small and large Safety Prime. Prime with push button convenience and is safe with all brands of primers.
Is there maybe a slightly better one for a little more money I should be looking at or will this be fine for me for a while?
I don't target match shoot and I don't hunt (yet) but I really enjoy target shooting and stocking up bullets in large quantities on the cheap.
I'll be loading .357mag and .38spl
Thanks for any help you can offer.
