I ordered a Dillon RL550B, Redding Die Set 80432, and a whole bunch of other items that my wife refers to as "more junk
". One of my friends gave me a metal table on which to mount everything. I am in the process of painting the table Dillon Blue
. My brother-in-law gave me an electronic scale that measures to the .001 gram, .015 grain. I will be ordering preformed brass from Keith_Davis.
Do I need the following Stoney Point Chamber-All OAL Guage?

Will the special .223 cases that you order separately for the Chamber-ALL work for this application? Do I need the Stoney Point bullet comparitor?
I need to order some bullets. I called Sierra and got the overall length of their HPBT Match King 220 grain as 1.485" and the 240 grain as 1.595". My 1 to 8 twist barrel will supposedly stabilize even the 240 grain according to this link:

Any comments regarding the 220 vs. 240 grain Sierra Match Kings? It seems most are using the 220 grain. Does the 240 grain bring about reloading, magazine, or accuracy problems that I am not aware of?
Please continue to help me out here, I don't want to end up with $1000 worth of "more junk" that I never get pieced together to use (don't want to give my wife an excuse to make another cutting comment
).
