You can make real good ammo with simple gear. For a rifle like yours, high volume high speed equipment is not called for. For the first few years of my loading, i used a simple single stage press.
This means install the sizing/decapping die and size all the cases. Put them in a plastic pail, as they get sized.
Use champfer tool to champfer case mouths (only has to be done once)
Then prime them all. You could use the primer arm on the press, but a Lee Autoprime would be so much nicer to use. Put primed cases in a loading block, mouth down.
One by one, put powder in each case. Use a scales or a powder thrower, or both. Put case in block, mouth up.
Scan all cases, make sure they all have powder.
Change die to the seating die, and seat a bullet in each case. Voila, 20 to 100 loaded rounds.
For plinking, you can buy the cheapest possible bullets.
MEL (Minimum Equipment List)
Loading manual (read it!!!)
Press
Dies
Loading block
powder thrower
scales
champfer tool
powder (slow - like 4831)
bullets
A starter kit from RCBS or Lee would have most of this. The Lee powder thrower is a POS, the rest is good.
Post a note on EE for the stuff you need. Lots of us have an extra powder thrower, etc.
