Rifle dies for the xl650

#1 · March 16, 2009, 9:24 pm

Just got my xl650. Got it set up on 9mm. But I also want to reload .243 for my son. Looked on Dillons site and didn't see any 243 dies. Is there any top quality dies like rcbs that I can use on the xl650 press. Does this mean as long as its a 3 die set and its 7/8 x 14 it will work. Just trying to understand what dies I need before buying my first set of dies.

For .243 Winchester, a 2 die set is fine. As you noted, Dillon does not make dies for this cartridge, but we do offer Redding dies. Stock# 15762 $34.95
