I'd suggest considering a Lee Collet die set in 260 Rem... I load a lot of 260 as it has become my main deer hunting caliber...
I have both RCBS and Lee Die Sets on hand.. and use the Lee the most. I have a Hornady die set for the 260 also... then is still unused.. and I bet I've had it 20 years.. I've always looked at a die set to be the cheapest part of reloading.... a die set usually costs the same or less than a box of 20 rounds of what is considered "Premium Ammo"...
I did try out about 4 or 5 Redding Body dies also for what calibers I shoot.. until the light went on, that for a body die, I can just take the spindle out of a die in the same based caliber for a body die... which I already have... Example.. spindle out of a 7/08 die and I have a 260 Body die... or a 260 without the spindle becomes a 243 body die...you get the picture...
Most of my ammo reloading... I take extra steps but it pays dividends in the field...Lee collet die for the neck... a " body die" for the shoulder..
I hardly ever use a die for a complete one pass Full Length resized anymore...
Last 4 or 5 years I have been annealing my hunting loads every reload..... it stretches out the brass life substantially...
I started out as an experiment on 223 brass... loaded it to around 44000 CUP, with 12.5 grains of Blue Dot with a 55 grain FMJ bullet.. ( had a 1000 of them I bought back when you could get that for $35.) Used one rifle, and ADL Remington.... neck sized each reload... annealed every 4th shot..
had to bump the shoulder back finally about every 8th or 9th sizing...
it was range pick up Remington brass.... I reloaded it 101 times... since then the same batch of brass has been reloaded 20 more times...
my inspiration was reading on Lapua's web site, that in house they reload their brass 300 times plus, doing load testing...
that batch of Remington Brass, kinda looks like Schitt now.. but it is still reloadable... hence the reloaded 20 more times after the experiment..
in the testing, I did lose 3 pieces of brass... but that was no fault of the product.. it was operator error at the bench.. so you can blame me on that one...or three...
but back to the 260 brass... most of my brass I use in the 260s I have, are stamped 308 on the bottom of them... pretty much range pick up brass.
being anal retentive, I keep brass in lots of 10 or 20.. and in zip lock bags, with each reload history on 3 x 5 cards...
I have lot numbers that have seen 50 plus reloads on them....Remington, Winchester and Federal mainly... as that is what I pick up at the range.
occasionally have a neck split here or there...but not really very often... usually annealing every couple of reloads...
and most of it has been where it never needed trimming....I have 5 rifles chambered in 260 Rem...
This pattern holds true in other calibers I shoot a lot of....
