[QUOTE="eshorebwhntr, post: 1981443, member: 17112"] Varget, 4350, and H1000. All of which you likely won't find right now. IMR 4064, 4320, 4350, 7828, and 7977 Vhitavouri has options too but I'm not as familiar with them. N140, N540, N565. Each of these are listed from fast to slow in burn rate. No guarantee they'll be best in your guns or anything. Just standard burn rates that usually work well in those cartridges. Not sure what primers your cartridges use. There is large rifle and small rifle. Hopefully you only need large and then you can buy standard and magnum. Calipers, Hornady bullet ogive tools, Hornady shoulder bump tools. Priming tool. I recommend the rcbs bench mount tool. Couple brass trays. Dry tumbler. I recommend using the Frankford Arsenal dry media in whatever tumbler you buy. Case lube. Brass prep station. I recommend the Lyman. Or you can buy hand tools. I highly highly recommend an automatic powder dispenser. I've had good luck with my rcbs charge master. A press. I've only used an rcbs rock chucker. I'm sure the others do fine. Some sort of brass length trimming tool. As others have said, good manuals and read them thoroughly. I also agree with the recommendation of trying to find a local guy to show you the ropes. You'll learn a lot from watching them and also pick up on what tools they're using. If you don't shoot a high volume I would do things in this order. 1. Buy a manual. Read it. 2. Find another reloader and see their setup. 3. Build your bench. 4. Start acquiring equipment. 5. Pick the 1 cartridge you shot the most or can't find loaded ammo for and start working with that. That will help reduce the amount of powder and primers and bullets you need. You'll find quick this is a huge initial investment financially. But if you enjoy it it's worth it. It also eventually boils down to primers, powder, and bullets. Your equipment doesn't really wear out. Best of luck. [/QUOTE]
