I'm putting together my first centerfire rifle and I'm stuck choosing dies. I've reloaded pistol on a Dillon 550 and 1100 for years. But I'm starting at zero when it comes to rifle gear.
I've got an Origin action and Bravo stock, and ordered barrels in .223 and 6 Dasher. I'm getting together everything I need, including a Rockchucker, and I've spent hours reading about dies, but I'm still lost. I'm sinking into paralysis by analysis here.
It sounds like I need a full length sizing die, with a bushing for the neck? A seating die, and some kind of button or mandrel to size the inside of the neck? But there are 6 or 8 different companies making dies, and they all seem to make 8 different sets of each caliber.
Someone just tell me what to buy...
