Been wanting to reload forever.
I have zero room; my GF and I are in a cramped apartment as well decide on a potential home build.
I have enough room to put out a small folding table and put it away. That would be my bench.

Kind of settled on the Lee Breech Lock hand press to start with.
And pretty much for the price starting out I'm looking at mostly Lee gear

Wanted to see what you guys thought?

Beam scale to start or spend the money on an electronic powder dispenser? If I bought the electronic one, how sensitive are the too being moved and stored?
 
I did the break up and down thing for a few years.

I used Milwaukee pack outs and a folding work bench. Couple clamps to keep my press secured and it did the job. You really don’t need much. A cheap press mounted to a couple pieces of plywood and some C clamps. Hand primer. Trimmer. I’d get an electronic powder trickler you can put back in the box when you’re done. Not at all hard to accomplish then put it away.
 
Man I wouldn’t sleep on a nice powder measure. A few of them can throw pretty precise charges and would take up minimal space. If not, I’d go with an electronic thrower.

If i was in your shoes OP, Id follow this suggestion right here.
 
Sort of electronic, what manual powder throws should I look at?

I do have one of the Lee loaders for .45/70 in the little red box. Bought a small electronic scale, case trimer for it and primer tool. That loader kit comes with a little scoop.
