I don't have the competition series dies, these are the Titanium Carbide ones, but yes the sizing and seating dies are redding. It could be that I have not found the right balance between belling enough to seat the bullet without scraping and belling so much the case scrapes the seating die.

My bell is just enough so that the bullet sits on the case without it tipping over, I load 200gr blues as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furrly Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 It's a matter of preference, crimp dies are rather universal.. I think there really is no one better then another.. I use a redding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muncie21 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) Received the Dillon dies and installed them this evening. 5 minutes to dial them in and no more scraping the bullets during seating. Going to chrono the test rounds tomorrow if the weather cooperates. ETA chrono data The rounds were very consistent, albeit a tad low. Need to bump up the charge a lil bit and maybe increase OAL as 1 or 2 rounds (out of 40) didn't feed well. Description: 200gr Gallant Notes 1: 3.45gr Prima SV 1.13 OAL Notes 2: TSO Distance to Chrono(FT): 12.00 Ballistic Coefficient: 1.000 Bullet Weight(gr): 200.00 Temp: N/A °F BP: N/A inHg Altitude: 0.00 # FPS FT-LBS PF 10 831 306.72 166.20 9 828 304.51 165.60 8 833 308.20 166.60 7 839 312.66 167.80 6 846 317.90 169.20 5 836 310.43 167.20 4 840 313.40 168.00 3 831 306.72 166.20 2 824 301.58 164.80 1 833 308.20 166.60 Edited August 30, 2018 by muncie21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
