Being what your current goals are, and considering your equipment, what your gonna need to start loading -
Powder thrower such as the rcbs, hornady, etc.
Powder trickler, not an absolute necessity, you can improvise, I used to dump a charge in a case and trickle up to my charge, but a dedicated trickler makes it nice. I use a Frankford arsenal, cheap, and weighted base keeps it in place when trickling.
Cartridge block. For standard, .308, 30-06 and other standard diameter cases, the plastic shell holder that comes in a box of 9mm or .40 cal rounds works. Otherwise, just get one. They are pretty cheap.
Case lube. I use Hornady one shot, always worked great, never a stuck case unless I did something wrong. But, imperial sizing wax works fantastic too. And on that note.....
Stuck case remover. This is a good one to get from the start. Might happen the first case you resize, might not happen for six months, but when it does, you will be happy you have it, and don't have to wait days/weeks on shipping or drive to a sporting goods and hope they have one. Just get it now. Saves a ton of frustration.
Case trimmer. Depending on your caliber, the Lyman E-ZEE trim works great and is cheap, and has pilots for most common cartridges, or pilots that can adapt for others. For instance, they don't make a .338 Norma trimmer pilot, but they make a .338 win mag trimmer......they are within a few thousands, so it works fine. But ya, it's way faster than using the traditional rcbs hand trimmer or others like that.
Chamfering/deburring tool. Plenty of them, they are simple tools, pick one.
Then either buy a tool to measure OAL to the lands (so your not jamming your bullets into them) or do some research on how to find your lands without special tools. There are a few, the sharpie trick, the cleaning rod trick, but my favorite that works with a lot of bolt guns is this video below. In a remington 700, you need to remove your ejector and your firing pin, but that can be done with a small hammer, punch and vice grips. Several ways to skin this cat though.
Lastly, and most importantly, a reloading manual. Not just a data book like the hogdon annual manual, but an actual reloading manual, to teach you how to make safe reloads, read pressure, and what kind of thing to think about saftey wise.
You may already have this knowledge, but if not, do a lot of reading on here. Things like fouled bores, carbon rings, temp swings, and many other circumstances can create a dangerous situation when shooting reloads, or any ammo for that matter. Just remember, there is 60,000+ PSI going off inches from your face, and your the nut that is making the pew-pews! Ha ha. Good luck, you will love it!
