need help choosing 30 BR dies

I'm patiently waiting on a 30 BR that I'm having built. I'm trying to get everything together before the gun gets here so I'll be ready to shoot when it's done. I want to go with a Harrell's Precision bump/bushing die long term, but they said I need to send them 3 cases that have been fired 3 times each (neck sized only) in order for them to select the appriopriate die.

Would you go with a Wilson or Redding Type S neck die in the meantime? Any Pro's/Con's with either?

Also, will I need a full length (or body) die from the time my cases are new until I get the Harrell's bump die? Or can I just expand the necks, turn them, & neck size?

I've got a Wilson micrometer bullet seater, so I should be covered there.

Thanks!
 
The Wilson will only neck size. The Redding Type S will F/L. Harrels turn around is about a week. I would wait on it. You can expand and turn necks now.
