308 Reloading dies
For the impending arrival of the Remmy (at last) I require a full set of dies. Initially to go in my Lee press but all considered as I feel the accuracy demons stirring!
It's not the pace of life that concerns me, it's the sudden stop at the end!

I hope you will shoot cast boolits and not waste your money on the glittery copper rubbish!!!

Re: 308 Reloading dies
Mike,
Lee appear to be making loading presses with two different diameter "holes" for the dies to sit into.
The one I have is wider than the industry standard, this allows you to add the quick change colour onto the thread of your chosen dies and slot them straight in. It acts like the breach on a ships cannon, with only treads on 1/3 of the surface.
Should your press have threads all the way round, as you would expect you will not need the inserts. Should it only be on 1/3 of the surface you will need the inserts, but with both you can use any standard dies.
Confused?
