Once you get ready to load...the dies I would suggest are a Forster BR seater and the Lee three pc deluxe seat...which gives you the neck/collet die along with FL die..& seater if course..the Forster seater is the best bang for the buck for seating straight bullets...I use Lapua & Rem brass with plain Jane Rem 9.5s along with RE22...H4831sc..Varget...or H4350 in all my loads....of course there are other powders that will work but thats my Swede powders inventory...I like the Swede so well I now have two T3's and have got one for a shooting buddy that has a cow elk in December...loaded 140 Nosler PTs for him...I'd feel confident using it for any game in the lower 48 with 140/160s....Also be sure to pick up a box of Hornady 160 (2640) gr RN bullets..the 8 twist Tikka will spin them just fine...pic shows my lam/ss T3 Swede when I first got it...now wears a Nikon 3-12 w/towers calibrated out to 600 yds w/130 Nosler ABs...do yourself a favor too and toss the factory Tikka rings...my other 6.5 is an 18# 260 Ack Imp on a Savage s/shot with Pac Nor tube....140 VLD Bergers @ 2995... ![[Linked Image]](http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/4531/65x55005.jpg)

Have not used the 129 hornady in the Swede yet but have in the .260 It's deadly.
