[QUOTE="dhois, post: 1854022, member: 32970"] I know it’s petty, but I had the issue with a Redding seater where it got damaged by seating bullets into >100% capacity 223 Rem loads and am still displeased with Redding for what I consider a cheap component. Redding expressly warns against this and I paid the price, that is I bought the Forster microseater and haven’t looked back. I still use Redding dies but going forward since then (late 1990s) I’ve only bought Forster or Whidden dies. just adding an additional thought on the OP: don’t look for “best value” dies. 30 years from now you care that you save $100 on a particular die selection. Diminishing returns are still returns. Just buy the dies you are confident will load to your purpose like Long Range hunting, or hunting short distance, or match/competition and move forward. “Buy once, cry once”. [/QUOTE]
