For those that reload a lot, imagine you about to come into a little extra money. Rifles are over priced right now but you want to make your reloading more efficient and more precise in the development of a load.
What would you purchase to accomplish this? Please list all equipment.
I'd purchase this ( http://www.giraudtool.com/prod02.htm ) to trim, deburr, and chamfer.

Stainless Steel tumbler, Giraudtool, RCBS Chargemaster, Ken Light Rotary Case Annealer and New House with secure reloading/gun room and 1000yd range right out the back door. Having to reload and drive to TWRA range to work on load development and range results is a PITA.

I got a Forster press a little over a year ago. Wish I would have got it 25 years sooner.

Probably a new bench with several Forster co-axials and maybe a Dillon 500 fullhouse all options.
I'd also get 100% all new brass. Most of my 06 is on the last loading.
I really like the New House thing.

I bought my Giraud several years ago and after my RCBS trim-mate the giraud is my second best investment pertaining to time spent and hand fatigue.
