BRA Die's Needed. Opinions?? Help?

I'm in need of a set of dies for a 6BRA. I have a set of Forster Dies in my cart from Bison Tactical. FL die and Dasher micro seater.
I see alot of people recommend Harrels but it looks like that could be awhile out. Also no way to fire a case 3 times with no die.

Also looked at the Whidden set. Is it worth the extra cheddar over the Forster's?
 
I'd buy or borrow a neck sizer, fire three cases three times and send them to Harell's. They will hook you up with a die that is close to your chamber dimensions and you'll never need to buy another. Or do the same and get Whidden to make you one. I'd go Harrell's. Often overlooked due to price but those guys have been at it a long time. Plenty of happy customers.
 
get a bushing that gives .001 tension.... lube the neck and inside of that bushing with imperial ......tap that bushing half way down the neck just enough to hold a bullet when jammed..... use pliers and carefully rotate the bushing and pull it straight off the neck..... lots of bolt lube on the lugs.......with each firing , step up the charge weight until the last firing gives you a fully formed case with sticky extraction.
This "hillbilly" method will give you that 3 times fired case, and you did not need a die to do it.
 
I have Wilson and Harrell’s for my BR -A - both are very good and I use both dies, one just sizes slightly more than the other. ( The Wilson quality is top shelf )
