New to reloading, loading for .30-'06
My partner's older brother just moved to a new to them house less than several football fields from both DNR land, and a huge National Forest. He plans on setting up a reloading shed when everything settles down. Former prepper homestead too, so a @50 yard range behind the shop building.
Anyway, what die set/s should I get so I can reload for .30-'06? I have my dad's Win 70 pre 64 in .30-'06. Likely '53 or '54 vintage, when he came home from Korea. My "brother" in law has an AR-10, so there will be plenty of powder and .308 bullets. I suspect we will focus on 168 grain projectiles. Keep it simple and buy in bulk.
I want to start to do my research now so I can keep my eyes open for a GREAT die set. I have no problem buying a premium die set because they will last longer anyway. Brands? I have a bunch of used brass, and another 150ish cases on the way as well.
Will also be getting a 10mm pistol, so there is another die set I will need. (and a .40 S&W most likely too)
If it were me buying, I'd get a Dillon 550 with 5.56 7.62x51 .30-'06 10mm and .357 Sig dies.
