After I get my rifle back from the gunsmith it will have a Lilja barrel 1 1/8 in diameter on my Rem 700 action with a Jewel trigger in 22-250. I am going to use new Lapua brass. The gunsmith said I should look into neck turning and checking runout. So after asking many questions here I have learned a lot. I am going to use Redding comp neck sizing bushing dies. I have a Forster trimmer.
I am going to purchase a model 1500 Sinclair neck turning kit with a Sinclair case neck sorting tool to measure neck thickness. For runout I am going to get the Sinclair Concentricity Gauge.
What is the best tool for chamfering and deburring that I should get? I have all the other tools for case prep such as Flash Hole deburrer, primer pocket uniformer and cleaner and neck brushes.
I was looking at the Forster 3 in 1 case mouth cutter for chamfering. Is there something better out there?
Thanks to everyone who has answered my questions in the last couple of weeks.

Was? I would suggest you purchase a case prep center. I have the RCBS 5 station case prep center. It is one of the first tools I get out when I start loading.

I beleave the automated tools are fine for very large amounts of ammo. They can really cut the time it takes to run through the stock pile.

Although you purchased a lot of top quality equipment. Why would you not want to use a good hand tool where you can make sure the inside chamfer is cut just right to except a flat base bullet and just remove a passable burr on the out side of the case. I inspect each case as I go to avoid over cutting.
 
I'm with F.Guffey. I fought the case prep center purchase for years. Then I finally bought the Lyman. Wish now I had done it years ago! Best thing I did for these old arthritic hands.
