    Which Forster Die for 308 (RRA LAR-8)?

    I have been using RCBS or Redding dies for a long time, but recently bought the Forster Ultra Micrometer seater die for 223 and love it. So, when I thought about 308 dies I figured I would try a complete set of Forsters. Question is I am reloading for one 308 semi-auto rifle and it looks like...
