I am in the same boat(New to, but wanting to get in to reloading). I am in a tiny apt and a bench/station is out of the question. So I just ordered a Lee breech lock hand press, 9mm and .45 carbide die sets(And the extra breech bushings to go with them.), a scale, auto primer X, and a primer pocket cleaning tool.
Youtube videos convinced me I can do this.

Seemed like a no brainer set up for my situation, I wish I had room for a bench, I just don't. Being new to range shooting and my local range I don't even know of anyone I could hook up with, so this is it.
I'm not sure what else I'll need except cartridge components, and load data(Which seems abundant on the www).
I'm hoping to be able to replicate my retail bought range ammo(Except maybe softer shooting). If I can load up a couple hundred rounds on and off in my spare time(I have a lot of that.) over a month I'd be happy.
My local club has a reloading course(class) once every month or so, I plan on taking that.
