| Ok so there a crap load of them. I'm just starting out.. but I need that there are two basic ones. The FL sizing one and then the Bullet seater. Is that pretty much the basic setup? I was looking at the FAQs and such and see that there is the possiblity of up to 4-5 dies. FL expander dies, expander dies(I assume this means neck), Seating dies, Powder dies and Crimping dies... SO MANY OPTIONS! |

Quoted:
If I had to do it over I'd get a Hornady 2 die set and the Lee FCD. Quoted:
For 223 get a 2 die FL set. To this add a Lee Factory crimp die. Adjust seater die to seat only (not crimp). Use Lee FCD to crimp. This is the basic set up. You can get the Lee FCD in a set with the two regular ones. Cheaper than buying separetley. Most every brand works fine. I run lot's of Lee's and they have never let me down besides with 7.5 Swiss. Right now Hornady is giving 100 free bullets for buying a set of dies so you might consider that. |
