Good deal Mike!!

This is really a subject you need to research as what works for me might not be exactly what you are looking for!!

I'm now using a Hornady L&L, and I love it. My old Rock Chucker is only used for primer pocket swaging, when necessary--which isn't very often. On the cost side of things, the L&L can be found for about $369 but you still need shell plates, quick change collets, and dies (about $100 per caliber). To help with the pain, Hornady sends your choice of 500 boolits when you send in the UPC and refund form from the press, so that's like a free $100 or so.

Other than the press, I use a hand primer, powder scale, and digital caliper. None of those are especially expensive.
