My top four best purchases:
No. 1 - Sinclair Priming Tool - very high quality, indestructible, perfect for precision seating of primers.
No. 2 - Whidden Gun Works bump gauge - caliber group specific, no inserts, no interfaces with holders, and with their new thumb screw option, simple to install on caliper.
No. 3 - Skip Shims - simple to use, inexpensive, works for every cartridge, provides quick adjustment as needed to change bump.
No. 4 - Sinclair chamber length gauge - cut down my need to trim by well over 50%
Regrets:
No. 1 - Satern Caliper Specific Metal Powder funnel - leaked powder and wasn't cheap.
No. 2 - Neck Sizing Dies - believed the myth that neck sizing creates longer case life and better accuracy - reality: none of that is true - plus they create reliability issues, i.e., chambering problems, increased wear on the bolt lugs.
