Favorite 223 dies?
I need to return my friend’s Lee’s. They seemed to function fine I have lots of Lees, RCBS, some Redding, Herters and Lyman. I’m not an expert 223 reloader.
Kind regards,
Tycer

Re: Favorite 223 dies?
I've been happy with my Lee FCD's but only reload for bolt and breakopen guns.

Re: Favorite 223 dies?
I use RCBS and hit clay birds repeatly out to 547 yards with a stock Colt AR with a 16" barrel but I know how to adjust them for my chamber......yes, dies are important and different makes have their issues/advantages, but the accuracy comes in how to adjust them.
Re: Favorite 223 dies?

I like my Hornady. 223 dies.
The drop down feature makes it a whole lot easier to get the bullet seated straight.
I've loaded thousands and thousands of rounds with it.

Stay with the lee's and get the 4 die set it has the fcd and collet die if your trying for match grade ammo, if not the pace setter 3 die set will work fine. danny
