22BRX dies

[BradY]

Hi Guys

Im about to have my new lilja barrel chambered for 22BRX. Headspace guages have arrived and my dies will arrive in the next couple of days too.

Is there anything special i need to do with my dies? They are forster neck, FL and benchrest seater dies.

Im not sure if i need to get a spacer made for the extra 0.10" the shoulder is blown forward, or if I should just run the cases in as far as they will go. The spacer sounds like a better idea, but i cant find any definite answer to it.

Cheers

Brad

Just space out your die with the threads. The die is not a duplicate of your chamber. You can measure the headspace, or simply fit by feel. The Redding Competition Shellholder set is a simplifying solution.

So can i get away with spacing dies or will I need to get a redding 22BR body die and ream out the top half of it for the extended BRX case to fit?
