Re: Quick question on Redding body die
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: bricktop</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Was looking at getting one for 260, but then I though that the 308 one should work for it as well, and for 7mm-08, 243, etc. Is there any reason that the 308 body die would not work for all of the smaller caliber 308-based cartridges? Has anyone else used their 308 body die for this? </div></div>
Shoulder 'length' difference.
They all share the same 20* shoulder angle, but the actual lengths of those shoulders are 'all' different for the 243, 260, 7/08 and 308.
I would say that you can't use a 308 body die on the others, even though it's the 'parent' case for the former 3 carts.
