Feeling a little short of a full deck - 12/28/14
I have a couple .223 guns and happened along an extra die set over the years. So I have been planning on using one die set for one gun and the other for other gun. So today I start to set up loading for my AR, which I have not done yet, and realize the two dies are different. Both RCBS die sets. The one I bought years ago is 11101 FL die set .223. The one that came in a component purchase off a buddy is 11103 SB die set .223. What is the difference? The SB apparently means small base per RCBS website, but that is about the only difference I could figure out. Little help here? coincidentally, I have been using the SB set for loading my single shot. I have an NEF single shot and an AR that I want to load for at this time with plans of getting a bolt gun sooner than later also. Which die for which gun? or doesn't it matter?
