Full length resizing help - jasper2408 - 07-09-2020
Might take a look at Mighty Armory dies. They are the best that I have used so far. Just my .02.

Not really, I'm a Redding and Forster fan...any one on the shelf will do if its only for 3 months.

these are pretty plain jane, and not bushing dies. they might get you by if you don't have a FL sizing die already, but i thought you did.

I talked to Wayne very nice and assured me I would be disappointed with the Full length die he said will annealed brass you can expect 0.0005 to .001 run out with a neck tension of 0.001" to 0.002" for neck tension depending on the type of brass used..
Sound Good what do you think.

I am assuming you mean Wayne at Might Armory and that you would not be disappointed with the Full Length die then he is correct. I am getting less than half the runout that he stated when I use Imperial Wax and only coat the body, neck, and inside neck and not any on the shoulders. This is on Lapua brass and I bump the shoulders 1.5/1000" and I only do this for my bolt guns and don't get as anal with my AR. They are kinda expensive but I think they are worth it for their precision.
Hope this helped you.

Yes it was Wayne at Mighty armory and I decided to replace my .308 full length die as well and he gave me a discount for buying 2 dies.
I look forward to seeing how well the die work.
Again thanks all for your kind help.
