LE Wilson Full Length sizing dies ???

[Bulseyetom]

I have seen a few Wilson f/l sizing dies for sale on various sites and was wondering what their pro's and con's are? Will they work in an arbor press or do you need to use a vise or rubber hammer? I assume they take bushings just like the neck sizer, but how do you adjust for shoulder set-back? Would you buy one of these dies or recommend the use of them? Thanks, Tom

If Wilson makes a Full Length Sizing Die, that's news to me. Their neck dies work with either an arbor press or mallet.

They quit making them years ago. I imagine they quit for a reason but I have never talked to anyone who has actually used or is still using them. Tom

John, kinda what I figured. I have an old 30-06 Ideal die like that that my Dad quit using 50 years ago for probably the same reason. I can remember to this day using a vise to size the cases for his 740 Remington. Tom
