The thread about the trim mate prep center got me thinking, how much reloading equipment do you own/use. And how long have you been reloading? I myself have been reloading only a little over a year, but I have been saving and buying equipment for the last two years. Here is a list of what I currently own.
RCBS
Rock Chucker Surpreme Master Reloading Kit
Partner Press
Powder Master Dispenser
Powder Pro Scale
Trim Mate Prep Center
Trim Pro Manual Case Trimmer Kit (they don't come in the surpreme kits[:'(])
Case Master Gauging Tool
UPM Powder Measure Stand
APS Press Mounted Priming Tool
Frankford Arsonal Vibratory Case Cleaner
Electronic Digital Caliper
Stainless Steel Caliper
One 5 gallon bucket with a Pan Media Sifter
Shooting Chronograph (bought a few years back for archery, but a must for reloading!)
Anyway I would love to hear what you own and use. Thanks

Well, here's my list in no particular order:

Forster Co-Ax press
Wilson case trimmer
Redding No. 2 master beam scale
Pact digital scale
Standard dial calipers
RCBS APS Hand primer
RCBS primer strip loader
Sinclair concentricity gauge
Sinclair primer pocket uniformer
Sinclair flash hole deburring tool
K&M neck turning tool
Vibra-shine case tumbler
Lee Perfect powder measure
Shooting Chrony
Redding dies
Forster dies
Lee collet neck dies
Sinclair loading blocks
Wilson case mouth deburring tool

I'm sure I forgot something, but that's mostly it. I'm pretty satisfied with everything I've got, especially the Co-Ax press.

Briman, by Lee Classic Press I'm assuming you mean the Classic Cast Press Lee began selling recently. Just curious how it compares with your rock chucker.

Been at it for 25 years, more or less. Would take a couple of hours to do a complete inventory, but here is a partial list:
RCBS Junior press
Lee turret press
Dillon 550B, complete
Dillon 550B, incomplete (just bought from an estate)
About 25 rifle die sets (.223 to 577/.450 Martini-Henry)
About 25 handgun die sets (.32 ACP to .45 Colt)
RCBS Trim Mate
RCBS Uniflow powder measure
Lyman Long .30 caliber "M" die, with homemade inserts for 7.65 and 8 mm bullets.
About 25 molds, handgun and rifle.
Lyman case trimmer (not used much)
Lee case trimmers for most rifle cartridges I load, and some handguns.
Lee Pro Pot 4
Pact electronic scale
Ohaus (RCBS) balance beam scale.
2 Lyman lubrisizers, with a bunch of dies and punches
Dial calipers
Micrometer

That is pretty much the basics.

40 or so sets of dies

2 uniflow powdermeasures

I think it would be safe to say that I have at least 1 of 'almost' everything RCBS makes. Haven't made the jump to electronic scales yet, but I'm looking. Also have a Lyman turrent press for my handgun needs.

Solitary Man

Highpower, I don't think there's anything particularly great about electronic scales. I use the beam scale exclusively for weighing powder charges. It's more sensitive and it's faster (because it's magnetically dampened). If I want to weigh bullets or brass (which I seldom do any more) I use the Pact.

Highpower

Thanks Solitary Man. Maybe it's just my getting old but I thought it would be pretty cool to set the weight you want and push a button on the trickler and let the scale do the work. At least that's the way I thought it would work. I'm sure I'll be corrected here if I'm mistaken. Thanks again.
