[QUOTE="sedancowboy, post: 1741441, member: 85874"] I would recommend a Rock Chucker press mine has worked for 50 years. Buy a set of Redding Type S Full Length bushing dies with competition seater and be done read the directions that come with the dies. Also get on ADGs list to get some 6.5 SAUM brass on the next run it is the best SAUM brass made. I use a small cheap press to decap with a universal decaping die. It saves on your main press and is easier. Save your money from a tumbler and buy a annealer. To clean brass I simply wipe it off with a rag with Alcohol. Sizing lube is Hornady Unique it is made from lanolin and is good for your hands as well. No mess and Easy to wipe off with a alcohol rag. Priming is easier with a bench primer and RCBS makes a good one. Eventually you have to trim your cases and I use a RCBS bench trimmer. My largest improvement to low ES was purchasing a quality powder scale. Buy good set of Calipers. You will need a Deburr tool again RCBS. The rabbit hole is huge and the investment can be to. If you are having a custom gun built in a Long range cartridge then do it justice and provide it with quality ammo that will preform at distance. PM me some time for load data I have 2 6.5 SAUMs and they both are both hammers.[ATTACH=full]155314[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
