So far i've got - Redding Big Boss Press / Redding Case Trimmer / Powder Thrower (not sure what one yet) / Electric Scales (not sure which ones yet) / Case lube pad / Primer pad / de-burring tools / Tumbler / Digital Calipers / Dilion or Redding Power trickler / Bullet trays / is there any suggestions on any of these?

All looks good.

I prefer a balance scale to digital scales ....... Kinda old school but it works for me.

My powder trickler is a Red K fried Spoon, I have several Redding and Hornady tricklers which work great but I just find the plastic spoon way quicker and just as accurate.

I use a powder thrower for my hunting ammo and for long runs but for target ammo and shorter runs I just use the spoon.

One thing you will need that's not on the list is a good Reloading Manual.

What calibre are you going to load for?

Cheers
Pete
