The C-H 4d dies are about that price in 2020 dollars. The one drawback to the 256 dies is that they lack a vent hole at the shoulder and trapped air can collapse the shoulder if forming brass from 25-06 or 30/06. I ended up drilling my set I've had no issues with the 30 Newton dies. By the way, the case capacity of my Norma 308 NM brass and my Quality Cartridge 30 Newton brass is exactly the same. Not too surprising that the velocities and loads are essentially identical as well. GD
