What are you trying to achieve?

As you stated there are so many things that go into accuracy I'm just trying to determine is the added cost of better dies is worth it.

Do you turn case necks? Do you sort your cases based on weight?

Yes. I buy/use mostly Winchester and Remington brass so I try and do my part to make them the best they can be.

How accurate are your powder throws?

I stay within 3/10, that is to say if I'm trying for 60.0 grains 59.9 - 60.1 grains is acceptable.

What bullets are you using?

Berger VLD, Barnes TTSX, Sierra SBT, Nosler Accubond and E-Tips, Hornady SST, and Remington Core Lokt.......currently. I'm ashamed to say I'm a guy who loves to try all the new things the manufactures bring out, and bullets and powders top the list

Are you sure your rifles will support greater accuracy?

Two should as they are squared actions with custom barrels and stocks with full length aluminum bed blocks. Both have Swarovski Z5 scopes with parallex adjustment.

Without a doubt and trying to guess what steps to take to better both my skills and my equipment towards better accuracy can be a little overwhelming. I've read a couple of articles where the authors really pushed buying the best dies you can afford and want to know if anyone here has an opinion on the subject.

Thank you for your suggestions. It is an option I had not even considered. I also, prior to reading your reply, ordered a RCBS Precision Mic for one of the cartridges. It should give me a better idea of exactly what my current dies are doing.
