New to me dies

[bluealtered]

I picked up a new to me Rem 700 in .260 Remington and it came with a set of Redding premium Deluxe dies, (#68531). This is my first set of Redding dies and there are no instructions with them, I have spent a couple of hours searching and i came up with lots of Redding instructions for S dies, and comp dies but so far nothing on standard premium deluxe dies.
Do they set like all other standard dies? If not can someone direct me to a PDF set of instructions for Reddings #68531 dies. Thanks Guys

Set them up just like any other dies. Dont bump more than .002 measured with a comparator and barely feel the pressure on them closing a stripped bolt on them

Great advice by Dusty. I have both Redding Die Sets for my .260 Rem and they set up the same. The only difference is that I can control Neck Tension with the "S"Dies and that gives me an edge on accuracy/group size. I also bought Peterson Brass for my .260 and they shoot as well as Lapua ever has. Great caliber to reload/shoot and mine especially loves the Hornady 130 gr ELD M's being pushed by RE19. Might consider giving them a try

Thanks guys, i appreciate the help. The dies were a gift from the person i bought the rifle from, (he bought it on a whim) and i want to make sure i set them up right rather than have to order repair parts before i can get started. I am one of those who always like to know the past history on the rifles i buy and thought about posting photos of it to see if anybody knows where or who built it. It is a 1:9 rather than a 1:8 so i i'll be starting with 130 eld match to see how that works out. Thanks for helping me out here and anymore thoughts on it are greatly appreciated.
