Setting up for Precision reloading.

Hi, am new here.
I've been reloading for years, but for economy, not precision. I've been FL resizing on a Dillon 550b. Recenly have been reading The Accurate Varmint Rifle by Boyd Mace, The Ultimate in Rifle Accuracy by Glenn Newick, and Precision Shooting's Reloading Guide I also bought a hand press and a neck die for my .308 Win. and have been sorting cases, uniforming flash holes, reaming primer pockets etc. Have seen a noticable increase in accuracy, but am not where I'd like to be. I'm considering setting up a reloading kit to take to the range with me, and am also considering buying a tight necked 6PPC and trying my hand at neck turning. I tried to order neck turning stuff from Sinclair but everything I wanted was backoredered. Thought I'd ask here, what equipment should I order to get started neck turning and what equipment and supplies should I pack in a reloading kit to take to the range with me.
Thanks,

JD,
Give BoydAllen a p.m he is a guru on the 6ppc, and loads all or most of his ammo at the range and he can get you started without breaking the bank, we all end up buying things we never use or need when starting out like you are, Boyd will be able to tell you the bare minimums and cheapest way to go to get the most results, he has helped many people including me with this same question as you have asked.

I second what Wayne has said, the smartest thing you could do is to contact Boyd. He gave me tons of good sound advice. Great guy !
