SOLD - .308 Win Redding Type S Match Dies w/ Bushing - $210tyd
I am switching to the non bushing redding dies as I haven't reloaded much for the .308 so far. The Type S sizing die hasn't been used The competition seater die was used for 9 rounds as I played around with different COAL lengths to determine my initial seating depth Includes a .334 bushing...

Click Adjustable Bushing FL Die Set - Whidden Gunworks
Each of our die sets include a Full Length Sizer, a Micrometer Seater and a Shoulder Bump Gauge. Using the Shoulder Bump Gauge with the Click Adjustable Sizer Die will make the proper sizer die setup easier than ever before. Bushings are not included in the set but can be added as you select...

buy once cry once, you need to make sure the seater die can do VLD bullets. a lot of the cheap ones do not.
looked on the lee site and i can not tell if it is good to go with vld bullets

Yes I like these I like the micrometer on top, takes the guessing out of the equation. unfortunately I don't have the cash flow, but will add to list of what to buy in the future, when I do.
Punkur67 found some used ones. but it out of my control at the moment. I am sure they are better precision. it least it will get me started. thanks again,
In my field of heavy machining equipment there was standard, precision, and super precision, the standard was open tolerance , closes was maybe .001 Inch, precision could hold .0005 inch all day and super precision could hold ultra tight tolerance of .0001 or below. and we had it all were I use to work. but it was million dollar machines ouch.
what presses do you use for your precision shooting if I may ask? for my info.

My son in law chipped in and purchased the Lee Precision 308 win dies. Received them yesterday.
