Suggestions for a reloader

Just was wondering what everyone's suggestions were for a reloader. I am going be be loading 257 weatherby and 300 RUM. Also I have heard that you can order custom dies for a specific rifle if you send back a fired case. Is this possible, and if so, is it extremely expensive?

You will be fine with std dies availbe from any number of manufacturers. I like RCBS, but everyone has their favorite.

For a press I woul get a single stage RCBS rockchucker.

I second these suggestions, with the caveat that there are a number of excellent single-stage presses available from various manufacturers, any one of which will work very well. I would caution you against going for any of the multi-stage or so-called "progressive" presses at this stage of your reloading.
