[QUOTE="Jbar280, post: 2818622, member: 108434"] I am liking RCBS dies these days. One thing I have noticed is that some die brands seem to size a lot more than others. For example, I have some Hornady dies that while I do like, they seem to be similar in size to a RCBS small base die. If you have a really tight chamber and need that much sizing then it seems like Hornady is a good choice. But if the chamber is a bit looser then a regular RCBS die is better. The downside of a die that is too tight is overworking the brass. My opinion is that for the average factory chamber, an RCBS standard FL die is a better choice than a Hornady. I don't have many Redding dies but I do have a set in .30-338 and that die is even looser than the same RCBS die. I like Wilson dies for seating bullets. My 2 cents anyway. -Jim [/QUOTE]
