[QUOTE="redleg1013, post: 1974385, member: 49994"] Just to address the OP's initial question: I have, use, and recommend Forster Ultra Micrometer dies, it has really helped me to take the guess work out of seating especially with changing values for tuning. I know the price tag can be intimidating; I was selling plasma to get my initial kit, and still do. The biggest thing would be to have a dial caliper with a comparator mounted to validate the micrometer, no matter who you buy from. Don't worry about getting a fancy digital that "reads tenths" because they flat don't. If you're looking to metrology tooling on a budget, have a look at CDCO tools, they are Mitutoyo without out the name. I have several that I use at home, but took them into the shop to have them QCd and they passed... good enough. [/QUOTE]
