ok sharpshooters. i have a hunting rifle and a match barrel for target fun on the way in 260.  i need dies....what do you recommend a 3 die set, 3 individual or a 2 die + 1. not looking to spend $300+ but not looking at basement bargain either..thanks for the help

Redding type S bushing fl sizing die and a Forster Seating die is what I use for my .260... I use Lapua brass. I first got a set of Forster dies, but the Lapua brass was too thick and the sizing die would just crush in the necks. So I went to the Redding type S bushing die for sizing and haven't looked back. The Forster seating die works very well though.

Good luck to you, and great choice on the caliber!!

For my .260 Rem reloading I have a Redding FL (with six stepped shell holders to bump the shoulder) and their micrometer seating die, and use a Lee universal decapper and a K&M Mandrel neck expander. I've been using Peterson brass and so far am very happy with it.

Another voice of approval on the caliber. Remington dropped the ball on this one in 1997. Should have just called it a 6.5mm-08
