[QUOTE="davidu, post: 2269801, member: 115072"] Thank the Lord I had a knowledgeable reloader help me with a reloading list 10 months ago. Your ultimate goals and your budget are very important for the seasoned reloaders to help you with a list. The posts above have a lot of good advice. I bought the RCBS Rockchucker master kit, RCBS trimmer, Forster dies, two vibrating cleaners and a bunch of small tools for brass prep, measuring things etc. mentioned above. The thing was I had absolutely no idea what any of it did. Totally lost. I learned as much as I could during an all day and part of the night Instructional session. Then read pretty much anything pertaining to reloading that I could find. Then started very slowly with one of 5 calibers practicing reloading. My experience is probably pretty typical unless you grow up in a reloading family. The volume of ammo you are reloading and how precise you want your ammo to be may influence what equipment is “practical” for your application. I can recommend the following if fast and precise are in your wheelhouse. 1. The beam scale is fun to look at from a nostalgic point of view. Purchased a A&D 120 digital scale. 2. RCBS powder thrower. Never got the hang of it. Bought a Lee perfect thrower and it was better. Finally added the Adams powder thrower and trickler 3. RCBS ProTrimmer and drill attachment. I just dreaded trimming, chamfering and deburring brass. Started with rocket ship. Added K&M chamfer tool then Lee chamfer tool. Never liked the looks of my chamfers. Bought a Giraud trimmer and couldn’t be happier. Good Luck [/QUOTE]
