I have an old Bonanza, a Forster, an old RC, a CH and a few old pacific bear, etc. that I don't use anymore. I take a Hood copy to the range to load with. Truth tell the RC does a great job. The Forster is mostly convenient for die interchangeability but lock rings can be problematic. Wilson inline seaters are good for repeatability. The little partner press is cheap and useable, also portable. The Hood presses are fine for the range but expensive.
For the Grendel I'll likely just load in the shop and take to the range or to hunt. I do like to do load workup at the range but I shouldn't have to do much for the Grendel. If you pay attention to detail and do everything in batches just about any press will do fine. It is nice to have one press set up to resize and one set up to seat but you don't have to do that. I didn't when I started out. You can use a small cheap arbor press, or a small cheap drill press, to seat with the Wilson inline seating dies. Those dies will seat every bullet to the same depth.
Things just get out of hand over the years.
I use mostly a K&M hand held priming tool. I also have and use Lee and RCBS tools. I keep one set up for small primers for Lapua cases.
