[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 902312, member: 11717"] If your die is the FL Die, it is the same one I have and it and the .293 bushing should work just fine. If you're using unturned brass, i would recommend the .294 bushing but the .293 will work fine. I'm using the Hornady 264 WM seater to seat the bullets. Total runout with seated bullets is running about .0005-.0015, not too bad. The Forster die should be at least as good as the Hornady and probably better. To check to see if it's the right die, take a sized case and try to insert the neck into the seating plug. If it fits snugly, then it should be the correct die. On runout... if you don't have a runout gauge, get one. or else you wont know what you're doing right or wrong. You can have the best custom dies and end up with terrible runout if you don't use them properly and the only way you'll know if you're using them properly will be with a runout gauge. If your Type S sizer is the FL die, then those are the only 2 you will need. If it's the Neck only die, then you will need a body.... or better yet, just the the FL die and sell the Neck die. The 160 Matrix (if you have a 8" twist) and RL33 will make a great combo. [/QUOTE]
