I've just started buying my reloading equipment. I want to buy good equipment yet not waste money for what is not needed. Please recommend the Min. amount of pieces I still need but in quality equipment. Rifle only for now.
I have bought a Forster Co-Axe press and picked up some used but in great shape RCBS and Forster dies. I just need recommendations for the rest of my kit.
For instance, I will likely weigh all my loads so do I need a good powder measure thrower and a trickler or would I be just as well off with some Lee dippers and a trickler?
What good weight scale would you recommend?
OAL measuring tool- caliper?
Case prep kit?
Trim tool?
Keep in mind I only want to spend money if it is benefitting the accuracy of my loads. I am not so interested in saving time.
I do have my pastor who will help get me started when I get all my equipment. My pastor reloads and was once a competition shooter. I'm sure he will make recommendations but he is very frugal and I just wanted some other opinions.
