Budget Shooter Supply is a board sponsor. Good prices, good selection, great customer service. Be wary on the internet, lots of scammer websites. Here's a thread with a list of known scam sites

Hi, I’m also a brand new member and thinking about starting to reload for my .300 Wby Mag and for a .300 PRC that I am getting shortly. I don’t want to reload for shotgun or any other calibres. Can anyone recommend a decent starter reloading kit. Thanks.

Although I'm brand new to it I can tell you most guys are going to say " their isn't a good starter kit and just focus on the press you want. I myself got a kit but I got it for 3 reasons auto dispenser turret press and case trimmer lol the rest is a bonus but I imagine like most these guys say I'll be swapping out a lot of stuff
I just bounced to the Budget Shooter Supply website and they have a kit there which I assume is a decent kit at least for a beginner. But I note your comment “just focus on the press you want”. As a total beginner's for reloading, I’m assuming from your comment that the press is the key piece of equipment. Anyone have any tips on what to look for in a press for a reloading newbee?
Is "town post" a shop ? Or a Craigslist type thing?
RCBS Supreme Master Reloading Kit. Buy once cry once. Just keep your eye out for the sales on this kit, don't buy unless it's on sale. That's my 0.2
And Town Toast and Gun Toast are both decent sites for used reloading equipment. But like everything else, use your common sense and double check everything when dealing with individual and private sale. Good luck

Thank you for the RCBS rec. A friend had mentioned them as being the best so I will have a look at their kit also.
I started with Lee challenger press. Still use it today. I like single stages presses. I have a complete rcbs rock chucker set up still sitting in the boxes as the lee does everything I need
I also for the most part use lee dies
Press. Pick a color
Powder measure i still weigh each charge
Digital scale because im to lazy for a beam
Chronograph because knowing is best
Tumbler because I like shiny brass
Various dies
Various manuals
More room than you thinknyou need for all the stuff you're about to buy

It really helps to have a local mentor, either a store that understands their product or a fellow gun club member willing to share experience, especially when you're getting started. And read a good reloading manual, eg the Lee or Hornady books. And there are useful bits on the Internet, like the Hodgdon site with the data for various cartridge/powder/bullet combinations or this forum right here, or various online retailers, but people far away can't see what exactly you're doing.
CGN sponsor Nechako Outdoors is where I get the majority of my reloading components!
At the powder and brass store along with a few primers tossed in.
Failing that, there are many site sponsors from the home page who provide what you are looking for.
So, to answer your question All of Them.
