[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 3032812, member: 5219"] This is a tough question. Depends on your chamber is it SAMMI or custom? Are you target shooting or hunting? I use Redding for my 284 which has its necks turned per the specs of my custom reamer. I use a bushing die, body bump die and a competition seating die. With Redding you can go several ways: with a basic FL (full length) die and a seater die, a FL/bushing die and a competition seating die, or a three die set which separates the neck sizing and body sizing into two dies plus a competition seater die (like I did). There are a few other variations from Redding. Some of the sets are outrageously expensive. There is one that uses a competition style die (with micrometer top) for the bushing AND the Seating plus a body die. Approx $450!!! Basic two die sets (FL/ Seater) are available from RCBS, Hornady or others. These can size your brass just fine and save you a ton of money and effort. I still use these types of die sets for many of my hunting rifles. [/QUOTE]
