[QUOTE="britz, post: 243136, member: 7865"] Lee case trimmers work fine, but are time consumeing.. they all get you to where you should be. Rockchucker is a good press (I just retired my Lee Challenger for a RochChucker IV) but I would get the Redding Big BossII if I was going to do it again. If your chambers are makeing the neck turing a consideration then consider bushing dies for resizing. sinclair or K&M are the two neck turners I'd get. DON"T GET RCBS!!! I have one compatition seating die for a 22-250 and love it.... but the biggest thing is the ease to set seating depth to the exact same from batch to batch (you can do it with a standard seater but it is harder to manage) not sure it was worth the 95 bucks I spend on it. I'd guess your scale is accurate enough. I beleive measuring off of the ogive is key, but you can do it with other means (for a long time I was using a seating plunger cut off and placing it on the bullet tip to measure but it was very time consuming). The Hornady comparator set is very handy. I also like the headspace guages. I also have a home made consentricity guage (wood blocks and a calaper jerry rigged to it lol!) that I use often enough. honestly, I can't tell you where the big differences come in accuracy, I simply run into a problem and read and brainstorm spend money for another toy and find another problem lol! It's a vicious cycle! good luck. [/QUOTE]
