FYI, I have been cutting my teeth reloading .223 for my AR using a set of Hornady dies (meh). I am wanting to get die sets for .308/30-06/.270. My .308 is my primary rifle and along with the .223 will be the bulk of my reloading. Pistol to soon follow.
For 223 I like the competition dies set as those little bullets are buggers to get going right.

The 270/308 and 3006 are no issue with just a normal die set with the new spray on lubes (I load 270 and 3006)

I would go with 4 dies set carbide dies for pistol. They just work a lot better.

Separating out the function in pistols works better for me and less fiddling with the crimp setting and the bullet seater (and easier with the heavy crimp ones like the magnums if you do those). I went with 3 die carbide and then bought the 4th one after, more better to get the 4 as a set.
