Some more market research.

What make of bullet seating dies do you use? You can select as many answers as you wish, if your dies are not listed in the poll can you answer in the thread below please, equally if you have a preferred make or firm favourite can you also list this.

I missed adding Forster as well as Redding. Do use Lee but only for 22 H and 222, for rabbit bashing ammo.

A Lee "Dead Length" seater.
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?
