I am tooling up for my No.5 tomorrow. I will be buying a Lee FC die ansd have a Lyman M that is already sized from my 32-20 Lyman set. I also will pick up a Lee hand case trimmer as I always do.

I'm eventually going to cast but will be loading either 150 or 174gr Hornady to start. CCI large rifle primers and I have some once-fired IVI brass.

I will be buying a full length size set and probably a Lee neck sizer. My rifle's throat is .315 and the 5 groove is keeping me from getting that size but the groove dia. is probably going to come in around .313 looking at the slug.

I have also read extensively on the headspace and case seperation threads. I neck size everything normally anyways and have only one 303. I did a bolt lug blue test and my lugs are both doing their job as specified.
