Getting my gear together to load .223 and .308 on a Forster Co-Ax for service rifle matches.
Any input on Forster full length die and ultra micrometer seater set compared to a Redding type S match full length die set?
Thanks

Both work very well. I prefer the Forster sizer and the Redding seater, but I have Forster seaters that load very accurate ammo. I just like the easier to read Redding dial.

You can't go wrong with either. If you loaded ammo side by side with both you would not be able to tell the difference on target.

Worry more about which bullet your gun likes.

I thought I read that the micrometer dies wouldn't fit in a Forster Co-Ax press, but I'm not sure if this is correct. Maybe someone that knows for sure could comment on this.

Every micrometer die Forster makes will fit their co-ax press.

Most Redding micrometer seating dies will fit.

Most RCBS micrometer seaters will fit.

Most Hornady seating dies with the optional micrometer adjuster will NOT fit.
