    ADVICE ON die set

    I found a Lee 3 die set on amazon for 6.5 Grendel wondering if anyone has used them to reload?

          That's all I've used. No problems here.

            the fit and finish on the lee just do not compare to a redding.

              Alot of guys on here have had problems with Lee dies overworking the brass and inconsistent sizing.
              If you're on a budget,Hornady dies work like a champ.

                  Another lee die user here never had a problem with them. The collet dies are great

                    I have Lee and Redding. Redding are great if you can afford them but RCBS are kind of middle of the road and I think, if you have to order from the devil and his angels, they carry some RCBS dries too. BTW my first post hello from tennessee

                        The guns don't care if the loads came from Forster or Lee, I prefer to use Forster.

                          I have been using Lee. Only issues i have with Lee is that they need a couple more thread to work with my LNL progressive press. Plus one of my 9mm sets needs the resizing die polished.

                          +1 for both Hornady and Lee.

                            I've used LEE (as that was all that was available at the time), then I got a RCBS. I bought a Forestor precision "ultra micrometer seating die" that took me a year to get and haven't had time to test it yet.
                            Any advice?
