    If you get a Hornady press/powder thrower I've got a few bits and pieces you can have.

    If you get a Lee press I've got a couple of lock rings you can have.

    Shot a lot of bugholes with ammo loaded in my $85 C press. You don't need perfect, perfect is a decade and a lot of gear away.

    Of course that all add up But i could hold onto it untill you could afford it.
    Sounds good @johnd! I don't think I'll ever be loading magnums, but as they say, overkill is underrated I'd rather save for something decent than rush into buying something I'll only want to upgrade later. PM me with a price when you're ready to move it on. Was hoping to score some beam scales on TM and have been keeping my eyes peeled for a thrower, so it would probably make sense for me to grab the lot off you.

    I have a photo of "the lot"..... its a lot. Some of it is 270 WSM specific and of no interest to you.

    It depends how big you want to go initially

    So out of this lot I would pick you may want

    Press
    Redding beam scales
    Hornady Powder thrower and stand
    Lyman case prep tool
    Redding lube pad ( got some lube to throw in with it )
    RCBS powder funnel.
    Lyman tumbler would be nice but not neccesary immediately.
