    Redding Competition Seating Die worth it for....

    Do you guys think this die is worth using for semi-auto (AR15). Should I just stick to the standard seating die? I'm loading for a SPR MK12 Mod0.

    Lee neck die for .308

    I've had good results from the Lee Collet neck sizer die with my .22-250 I'd like to try one for the .308 (Rem700PSS) but it seems everyone is out of stock Your experience with this die in a .308 and a source for the die (rather not buy the deluxe 2 and 3 die sets) would be much appreciated TBC

    forster comp seater die question?

    My forster seating die is leaving a ring around my 178 Amax bullets. Why is it doing this and how do I correct? I dont remember seeing this with the 175 SMK's. I have already taken it apart to clean. Nothing to bad on that. I load some more and the ring is still there. Thanks, Rick

    Check this out. From the article is seems only 40 s&w is the only caliber but if they release one for 9mm I am sure I will get one. The die resizes the full length of the brass to take out the bulge of fired brass. Redding G-Rx Die
