243 Ackley Improved Body or FL sizing die

[GRG]

I am looking for a body or FL sizing die in true 243 Ackley, not Win Improved. Please let me know if you have anything.

Thank you

I think I have a brand new Redding 2 die set, I'll have to check when I get home.

Anyone find a set?

I might be able to help you out. My lgs has set for sale with a rifle but its been on the shelf for 2 years. I'll check on Monday to see if they will separate them.

 

[backwoods83]

I do have a set.

Backwoods, it looks like those are the 243 Winchester Imp dies not the Ackley Improved. What does it say on the sizing die body?

 

[backwoods83]

They say 243 Imp 40°, I bought them thinking I was going to do a 243AI, and did a 6×284 instead. But that's what they sent me when I ordered them, they were listed as 243AI, several places have them listed with that part number as AI and several say Imp 40°, I don't honestly know, if there's a difference in this particular case, sorry I can't tell you specifically, but I've never used them.

 

[GRG]

I believe that is probably the same thing that happened with the dies I have. They list them as 243 Ackley Winchester Improved but what they are is the Winchester case with a 40°shoulder. Thank you for looking.

 

[backwoods83]

No worries, good luck.
