seater for .243 Winchester

[gene so]

Hello, I am looking for a straightline , Wilson type, seater for a .243 Winchester. I need less bullet runout than can be attained from my 7/8-14 standard dies.

Any of the 7/8-14 competition seating dies will do the job. AKA Redding or Forester. A Wilson straight line die is not a panacea for seated bullet runout.
there are other issues to address ( like uniformity of ur brass necks) to help u lower the loaded round runout.

Just like Bob said, you have other issues more than likely. I Wilson die will not fix poor sizing. I'd look into your sizing process first and then if you don't already have one, a Redding comp seater, Forster, or any of the sliding sleeve type 7/8" seaters. I have personally tested between Forster (my favorite 7/8") and Wilson and could not come up with any measurable difference in depth or concentricity. Because you asked, here is the seating die I would use if you're set on a chamber type seater.

Both the Redding Micrometer & the F A Universal Micrometer seating dies work well for me.
