Major +1 on the extra shell retaining springs. I think I have about eight remaining in stock just in case... they get distorted easily and are likely to break at the most inopportune times.

Ditto on the bushings and lock rings.

You also might want to get some Teflon(R) plumbing tape if you are using the case-activated powder drop, and put a couple of wraps around the outside of the bushing for the powder measure- the CAPD has a tendency to work loose after about 50 rounds or so. IIRC Hornady has a Belleville washer which they can supply if you run into this issue, but the tape can be had much easier IMO.
