A set of import B&S9 collets, while more expensive than R8, will likely be the only taper specific tooling you'll need.
You can get drill arbors, face mill holders, ER collet extensions, boring head arbors, etc. all with a straight shank, which you can then hold in a collet.
You can then also hold this straight shank tooling in an R8 or any other taper mill when you need to.
I run all my endmills/tooling in collets; good luck finding cheap B&S 9 endmill holders
