I started out reloading for a 7400 in .280 and used RCBS dies,no special die was used, it feed fine with my reloads,I do remember always sizing down far enough to bump the shoulder each time. For 30-06 I would look at 180gr Barnes, great permance for big game. Many other bonded types will work good also, today bullet choices are well designed. I personaly really prefer the solid copper for guaranteed penetration.
