For context, I have no experience reloading. I'll be hunting an AR-style semi-auto platform next year, reloading for 308 win.
Do I need a small-base sizing die? Based on what I'm seeing I have two options: size the brass to saami spec or bump the shoulder back and reduce neck size by 3-4 thou. I can accomplish either of those w a standard FL die though, right?
I know I'll need a seater die that taper crimps and the $ difference for the SB set vs a seater die is minimal. Just want to make sure what I think I know is actually correct.
