You can buy lots of goodies for the 550B but what yo uhave is agood start. The roller handle is a bit more comfy than the ball handle for most. The stongmount get the press up higher if you want that. Your bench need to be very solid or you'll have issues priming, so make that bench top thick & solid. fasten the bench to the wall if you can.
I second this post regarding a bench. IMO the most important component of reloading with a 550B or any other for that matter. Get a strong, sturdy bench that won't wobble. In a perfect world, anchor it to the wall if you can. If you can't, just make sure it has good depth, nice and heavy, thick solid wood top and level.
