I bought a case of 500 primed 7mm-08 brass. What equip do I need to load these?

Google 7mm-08 load data and go from there.

Varget in anything from the .308 parent case works

Any press that you can find, a set of dies, and a powder measure.

Edit to add.
Varget is a powder from hodgdon.
Is you have primed brass, I'm really not 100% that you would need to size your brass. I don't think you would but you would need to check a few pieces.
If you don't need to size it a seating die would be enough to get you started. Also, check the bullet seating in the case. You need a some pressure there but not too much.

Reason I'm not sure is that I have some .45lc that I had to size prior to loading. All my rifle brass I sized to have a uniform neck tension and I also turned the necks. You won't need to worry about that.

I'm just getting started reloading also, I did some research and decided the Forster Co-Ax was the best one for me.

I do like the self centering and ability to repeat between reloading sessions. I watched several videos on most all the major brands and thought this one worked best.

It is one of the lesser known brands but so far it has worked flawless.

I’m in the exact opposite position. Bought all the equipment I needed to reload and several manuals, bullets, brass, and the powder that all manuals agreed was most accurate back in January.

Figured I’d get primers once I did a little more research on the loads. Guess who is rationing factory ammo this year.

primers are already in the brass.

missed that part

My post in this link has more info than you need right now, but I think you'll find it useful nevertheless. I'd suggest you either full length resize the case you bought or expand the case necks on them. It's typical for a few case mouths of new brass to be fouled up. Since your brass is already primed, you can run them through the FL sizing die w/ the decapping/depriming pin removed. Indeed, Varget is a very useful powder for the 7-08 (and many other rounds, as well), but it can sometimes be really hard to find. In addition to Varget, I run Reloder 15 and Hodgdon 4895 in my 7-08. There are a BUNCH of good 7-08 powders. It can be frustrating sometimes buying a pound of powder only to find out the powder's not gonna work for you and your gun. You may have problems duplicating the load you develop w/ the already primed brass unless you can find out the make of the brass. Changing any one component in a load can change the entire load.

As a newbie, it's especially important for you to buy one or two good handloading books that has a good load data as well as the "how to" of handloading. I've bought good manuels from Hodgdon, Hornady, Sierra, Speer and Nosler. Hodgon prints a manuel every year that looks like a magazine. In fact, you can find it in the magazine section of many stores. It has lots of load data, but little, if any, "how to" info. Hodgdon, Hornady and Sierra also have good online loads data and load data apps. Someone already gave good advice on primers to check the brick and mortar stores, especially stores in smaller towns. It's not uncommon to find handloading supplies in some small town pawn shops. The main thing is to learn to handload SAFELY. Enjoy yourself and keep us updated.

I bought a set of Lee Collet dies today.

I suppose that means I will need a Lee press...correct?

Oh I was wondering.

So dies are universal?

This won't be easy to find. It's the first powder to dry up off the shelves.
