I am curious to know which dies everyone is using for the 450B and how they like them?
I am going to order some soon but looks like Hornady, Redding, Lee, and Lyman 450 dies can be purchased from Midway. Not sure which ones to go with.
Thanks

Well, they had to replace them because they were CHEAP JUNK. They seated the bullets off center in the case. Later on, I tried another set in another caliber. They replaced those as well, same problem. It took 2 lessons but I finally learned and once I bought a set of Hornady New Dimension dies, I realized the difference between high quality dies and cheap dies. Don't waste your time and money on low price loading equipment unless you like returning stuff for replacement. Lee makes a great set of plastic powder measures and the hand loader for portable use is cool. Avoid the rest of their products, especially the cheaply made presses and dies.
