I am shopping to buy a Dillon press today.
Do i need to buy Dillon dies at $60 or will the Lee dies for around $30
work?
Also the prices seem to be the same for the press every place i have
checked,is there a best place to shop?
Thanks
Chuck
Brianenos.com is a good place to get your dillon... his prices will be the same because Dillon closely regulates them, but the site admin is a retired competition shooter that is still supporting the sport by hosting online forums, so he'd get my business if I were in the same place.
The Dillon dies are nice, but I'm not sure they are worth the cost. The lee dies are OK. I like the Dillon bullet seating die quite a bit better than the lee, and I think the resizing die has a better design for tapering cartridges like 9mm, but I'm not sure these improvements are worth the extra $30.
