[QUOTE="Forester, post: 243206, member: 11102"] Whats the budget? In order of what I would replace first: 1. Get the straight line seater dies, Redding or Forster. Bushing dies would not hurt either. I am partial to the Forster bushing dies over the Redding myself. 2. Pick up a concentricity gauge, Hornady has a new one coming out that looks good. 3. Upgrade the brass to Lapua/Norma/Nosler. And get the Sinclair primer pocket uniformer and flash hole tools, also get a VLD chamfering tool. See where you are at regarding straight ammo, if it is straight there is no reason to buy a new press. If it is not straight then take a look at either a Lee classic cast press on the inexpensive end. Or go for a Forster Co-Ax if you don't mind the $$$ If you do all of the above and still want more then take a look at the LE Wilson case trimmer and Sinclair base. ***If you are able to regularly get 1/2 min from your factory rifles you might consider not going too overboard until you see how the customs shoot with your loads. You might be making darn good ammo with what you have...then you can spend the money on ammo and new barrelsgun) [/QUOTE]
