Gussy, yet they are nice and very good dies. I had a set for the 6mm that would seat a bullet with zero runout.

Re. Seating dies.
I had very good luck with Bonanza/Forster bench rest seating dies
to load my 308s for my M1A and Palma rifle and also 223s for my AR
match rifles back in the 16 yrs when I was on the Wisconsin Service Rifle Team
and did some Palma matches .
You guys "make" me want to get out those rifles and use some of my old stock
of match ammo-M852, 168 gr match loads, match 75 gr BTHP, and Amax for the Ar and for the Palma rifle.

Arnie,
I had some fine Military match rifles, M1's I got from the CMP a very fine heavy barreled Match M-!-A from Springfield Armory several O-3-A 2 and 3's Never liked the SP1 but I did the .308's and the 06's but they? all went down the road when I quit the CMP matches.
Now the only ones I have left are the 73 and 78 trapdoor rifle and carbine.

Couldn’t agree more about the cute .380’s the 1911 type 380’s are so much nicer than the blow back PPK’s . Much easier to control with the great ammo that was available they are legitimate self defense cartridge now.

Randy I sure like mine and I’m seeing the 380 ammo becoming more available

Guys,
For you 380 affictionados, take a look at the S&W Bodyguard 380. It is a double action only, hammer fired, is a true locking action
and the trigger can be repeat pulled for a second strike in the unlikely event of a failure to fire. good visible sights for us old guys, a laser, AND, it weighs only 11 oz. I love mine. In my pocket just now.
