    Ordering dies....need a little advice please.

    Re: Ordering dies....need a little advice please. Well...they are back ordered again... As to adjusting for two different guns, that is one of the main reasons for going with the micrometer seating die. So once I get the seating depth setting, I can dial it in for each gun.
