Hi Guys,
Just about to start reloading for my .243. Which die set should I buy and why.
I only neck size my .223, and currently use RCBS and Redding dies.
Many thanks

Were they fired from your rifle, you should only neck, size if being used in the rifle they were fired from, also run through the die give case a quarter turn and run them through again, should not be tight in once fired cases.
Probably teaching my granny to suck eggs.
You should be fine with neck and full sized. Have never had a problem with a Mauser actioned rifle. Mannlichers yes as sometimes they can have tight chambers...like most austrian filliesSorry to hijack but I'm about to start reloading for my 243. It's a mauser 98 and I'm wondering whether it'll be more tollerant of neck sized (or close tolerance) cases over push feed due to the claw extractor? I assume it will on extraction but what about loading? I've got a FL die but will need a neck sizer
sounds like it, but do they get baggy with age?My .243 is a Sauer are they renound for tight chambers?
I'd guess it depends on what girth you're giving itmy 30.06 Sako is slack as a yaks ****.
