Rifle Dies - Redding or Bust (I hear Hornady dies are nice, but I've had no reason to try them since I switched from rcbs to redding.)
Pistol Dies - A mixture of Dillon and Redding
Single Stage Press - I use a Rockchucker. It's a good reliable press. However, if I had it to do over again I'd probably go with a T7. I'd really like to have the new forster coax.
Progressive Press - I run a Dillon 550B for everything, except the Grendel and load development. Great Press!
Powder Measure - I use a Redding BR PM and scale for the Grendel and load development. If you want an electronic scale go with the Chargemaster (from what I hear they work great). Stay away from the Hornady pocket scale. It's the most inconsistent thing I've ever seen. I only keep it for checking my ammo coming out of my 550B to make sure they have a powder charge.
I'm a big believer in buy once cry once.
I really like the Forster Head Space Gauge with my Hornady OAL rod for measuring max OAL for different bullets.
I upgraded my Hornady Calipers to the Mitutoyo 500-752-10 Digital Calipers and can't explain how impressed I am with the Mitutoyo.
Hornady sales a couple deburring tools for one of their hand tools, but the design allows me to chuck them in my drill and go to work. Great investment!
The little crow WFT is the only way to trim brass! However, you'll probably never need it for the Grendel.
Harley deprimer is a nice tool with a 5 gal bucket. It allows me to do thi tedious task while watching the game.
