Best 7mm08 dies

Post by ter »

I just bought a 7mm08 and I need dies. Any recommendations? I thought of getting a dillon press someday if I find the time to shoot.

Opinions vary on FL sizers, neck sizers, and body dies. I haven't found any seater dies better than the Forster Ultra Micrometer Seater Dies. I use one for my 260 Rem highpower silhouette rifle and just have the settings on the die written down for each of my loads. I set the die to whatever load is listed at in my load book and it's dead on. As soon as funds allow, I'll be picking one up for .223 and for 30-30 for my varmint and CLA guns. I have a Redding bushing neck die with a carbide bushing so I don't have to lube cases when neck sizing.
