Do you have a particular kind of press in mind? Seems like you are deep into precision, which some people say you can't load on an auto press. Guys like Tim_K have experienced otherwise.

Yup. Tim K is one of the folks I've hoped to chat with specific to reloading. Again, it's been a busy summer for everyone.
With regard to equipment, I wouldn't know. Everyone is usually trying to sell something so I research products a bit differently.
I started reloading on 45ACP and 308 at the same time. Can say the straight walled are easier, but not so much to make it so you couldn?t start on 223. Plus you shoot so much more 223 it seems and would see a better ?return on investment? anyway.
Start off reloading on a single stage press and work on attention to details & not getting distracted, all it takes is......Squirrel !!!!! ....... where was I,.... Oh yeah, all it takes is a moments distraction, and you will have a KABOOM from missing a double charge or squib(s) in you barrel. Even an over length case could do your firearm in and possibly injure you or another.
And as Irving mentioned, start with straight walled pistol calibers 9mm or 45 ACP are a little more forgiving on case length so trimming is easier.
Beef fajitas for dinner and burgers and dogs for lunches this week....woot.
