SAC Infinity APS dies

I am using one for a 6.5 PRC necked up to 7mm (7-6.5 PRC). It is a nice die and incorporates nice features like the shoulder bump is built into the bushing and collet that holds the decaping rod. I am using mine on a Forster Co-Ax press with an SAC Solo lock ring. it's a nice combo. I'd recommend it.

Oh! Oops. Well, I use their Arbor die for the same cartridge with an AMP press. It works very well, and in that press it is extremely consistent regarding seating depth. The die is click-adjustable in .001 increments and you can reset the index ring when you've found just the right depth. At first, I wished the depth was more adjustable but that turned out to be a non-factor. I bought both of those dies initially for 7-6.5 PRC cartridge as they were ready to size and seat w/o modification unlike many of the other options available at the time.
I have also switched to their modular headspace and bullet comparator inserts. Both increase the level of consistency over what I had been using.
Sorry for the earlier mix-up. My impression of their gear is that it's quality stuff and I like the way one die can do several cartridges with some simple changes. Their headspace inserts are used on their powder funnel as another example of thoughtful designed-in modularity.

Question on that index ring that can be re-zeroed... it seems like that would be a neat feature, right up until you change calibers. How much faffing about is there when switching over?
Like most people I'm used to having dies dedicated to a given cartridge - or even a given barrel in some cases. So I'm trying to wrap my head around the whole 'modular' approach.

I follow a few British woodworkers on YT... their vernacular just cracks me up!
