Greetings. I am considering getting into reloading for my precision rifles. My thought was to start with the .50bmg kit from Lee and buy an appropriate 6.5 creedmoor dies so that I can reload for both of my precision rifles. Then I intend to order the Hornady AP down the road for my non 50 reloading.

I am looking for a list ancillary equipment that will work for both my 6.5 and the 50. (And smaller stuff)

Such as case trimmers tumblers calipers scales powder measures etc. I would like to minimize my duplicate equipment purchases as much as possible. Which stuff will work for both.

The Frankford arsenal tumbler seems to have plenty of volume for .50.
