[QUOTE="Tac-O, post: 2534779, member: 109994"] OP, I would recommend getting a FL sizer reamer with your chamber reamer. The cheapest way the make your dies might be the following. I can't say for certain, but it's what I am doing and is more affordable. Keep in mind, I'm not a competitor and I shoot for fun and hunting. I am happy if I can keep a consistent 0.5-0.75moa load going. Die blank from PTG fr a FL sizer. Then you can either get some type of expander ball stem to have threaded in the top, or get an expander die. I have a Lyman expander die. It's the cheapest option I found and you can get custom sizes for it through buffalo arms company. For a seater die, use a Lee 270win dead length seater and use the chamber reamer to open it up. Shorten the length appropriately. The Lee dead length rifle seater is not hardened. Other options are newlon die blanks or having custom dies made. Having dies made by a die mfg means you may not get to pick dimensions exactly, and longer wait if using fired brass. [/QUOTE]
