I assume this has been covered here before, but using Google I can't find answers to all of my questions. So I will ask then here.
I have most of my basic reloading set up together. The main thing I need is a set of dies and a way to trim the brass. I was going to get either the Hornady or Lee dies from Alexander arms. But first I wanted to see if either had any glaring problems.
It seems the Lee dies had dimension problems a bit back. Did that ever get fixed? I don't have to tools to properly fix it to spec.
With the hornadys, what shell holder do you use, the number 6? Also, what is up with the hornady dies? The versions from Alexander arms sells are almost $20 more expensive then everywhere else. But hornady dies everywhere else are "hornady custom grade new dimension dies". Are the Alexander arms versions some custom versions or something?
I believe I will be using Lapua brass the most, so I will be getting a Lee universal depriming and decapitated die. Which leads me to problem two, triming the brass. Because I have been told Lapua 6.5 Grendel brass doesn't play nice with the Lee case length gauge, which suckered as it looks pretty handy, and Lee doesn't make their 6.5 Grendel ez trim die anymore,which sucks because I have a Lee ez trim, what is the best way to trim 6.5 Grendel brass?
Thank you to everyone who can help me with my questions. Have a nice day.
