21st Century lathe setup isn't a cheap investment for 5 cartridges, but, they have all the shoulder angle cutters, reamers, shellholders, expandable to a trimmer with a different toolhead and a lever kit. I started by buying the neck turning head and then adding the mandrels and cutters, as I decided what I wanted, easy changing out cutters and adjusting it. Have played with all of that a couple of times. I saw the lathe and hummed and hawed over that for a year or two, decided to get it while I still have an income.
I could have just bought Forster add-ons for my trimmer, decided this was a better way to go. I see Hornady has a neck turning kit out now, forget exactly, but, I think you can convert the concentricity tool instead of buying the whole new setup.. I bought the neck thickness gauge addon for mine, pretty reasonable, works nicely. cheaper than a tube mic that is any good.
