New to reloading

I've been shooting on a limited basis for years and now getting into reloading. I have a turret press, die sets for both size ammo I will be loading, and a scale (all a gift). Were can I get a good book with illistrations, and a source of reference to begin the process. I'm mechanically inclinded but have even seen someone reload before. If there is a total beginning I'm starting there.
thanks for the help
Oh and I'll be loading ACP.45 and ruger .480 if that helps.

thanks for your time
Thanks for any help for a newbie trying his hand at cutting costs to continue to shoot.
use lee challanger for basic, & lee c frame to seat bullets. hand dip each case, use hp38 powder for 5 handgun cal. use h4895 for 3 mil surplus cal. keep it simple stupid! also cast lead bullets for same. do any other reloaders follow a routine like this?
The groove your discribing on this thread sounds like a lube groove, and the "waxy substance" is lube. Depending on what color/hardness your seeing, it could be anything from a beeswax/alox mix up through a hard carnubia wax
This groove around the bottom of cast bullets is for a gascheck. A gascheck is HIGHLY reccommended if you are loading full house loads.
