My First Bushing Die Set Up!
So, this is going to be my first attempt to use a bushing die. I picked up these Redding Type S Match dies as a set. This is the proper way, full length sizing die! So, let me know if I did anything terribly wrong here please. Besides not putting a little bit of lube inside the die before my first case! I left that in so you can laugh at me forgetting that. Made a cranky noise at me.
I think I have this set now. Seems like I should have a good, solid grip on my projectiles! And my shoulders should be bumped back to be similar to these Lapua cases when they were new before being fire formed. I'm sure I'll get a little better at this as I do it more and get some testing time to try a few different settings.
I also wanted to show off my RCBS Mic set. It is a really easy way to get your measurements for setting the shoulder bump on your sizing die! It also includes a way to measure inside your chamber and get the proper length to the lands of your barrel. I will probably try that soon and see if I can determine my optimal seating depth for this rifle. But for now, I think my current seating depth is working very well!
I did try to use the Whidden Gunworks click adjust lock ring. I am going to assume that I did something wrong when setting it up. I will have to reach out to them when I have some time and figure out where I went wrong. When the die is out of the press, it will click like it's supposed to. But when in the press it was not clicking. I may have just got the ring tight to the bushing too early so there was too much tension to allow it to click. So that part of this failed for now. But if you are interested in it, let me know and I'll figure it out better and make a follow up video!
Let me know if you have any tips! Always looking to learn more and get better at this as I get further into it and do more. Thank you for you time and I hope you have a great rest of your day!
