[QUOTE="GRG, post: 2239243, member: 100299"] I'm in the dilemma of having a 243 AI, Redding Comp dies with body die that is for a 243 Winchester Imp not Ackley. Right now it's like pulling hens teeth finding an Ackley sizing die for this. Every set you see diverts you to the Win Imp. Which is a different dimension on shoulder diameter. The Ackley sizes to .460 at the shoulder and the Winchester Imp sizes my cases to .450 at the shoulder. Stressing the brass a lot so I anneal every firing but feel I'm giving up accuracy and wasting my time with load development. Redding says they cannot re cut my body die, and I am sending them a diagram of my Manson Reamer to see if they have a die available or to make. Their dies all jump back to the Win Impr. as well. Can anyone tell me who can do a body sizing die for reasonable? My competition seater is fine as well as my s bushing neck die. I don't see it listed on any of the other sites, Forster, Hornady, Lee, Wilson. Why is the 243Ackley one of the few like this? Thanks for any help. Glenn [/QUOTE]
