RCBS SB 308 dies for loading match quality ammo
I just started loading .308 again after many years. The only die that I have is a Small base die since I used to load for a Springfield M1a NM but now I don't have that gun anymore but a Savage Tactical in 308. How much would it effect my ammo to use the SB die?
Thanks

Probably not the best choice. Most loaders aiming for top accuracy use neck sized brass if shooting a bolt action. The SB sizer is nearly at the opposite of neck sizing.

Then there is measuring the diameter of the case above the case head. By design I find it impossible to size the case head, the shell holder with a deck height of .125" prevents the die from sizing the case below .125" above the case head + the radius of the die. F. Guffey |
