.300 blackout reloading

[trooper632]

Hello everyone, I have a Dillon 550 reloader and haven't used it in about 12 years, but have bought a 300 blk out and want to start reloading again. What brand dies do I need for that round or what are the beat ones to use on the Dillon, thanks in advance.

I don't have a Dillon press so I can't tell you what's "best" for it, but all major manufacturers make 300blk dies.

I have Hornady dies because I got them for a good deal, and I certainly trust the company. I'm new to reloading but I like the design and clean finish of them.

I've been using a Lee Classic Turret press with the Lee 300 BLK dies with great results. But I think you can pretty much use any brand dies with any brand press with the proper adapters. But since you're with Dillon now, I don't see any reason why you wouldn't go with Dillon does also (other than the fact that they seem pretty spendy!):

I bought LEE dies for the .300 Blackout but I haven't used them yet.
Got a good price at Titan Reloading
I just realized the dies I got are a "Very Limited Production" run. They currently show 38pcs available for $28.98 p/3-die set. Retails for over $45.
Part # is 90575

I also have the lee dies that I am planning to use with my Dillon Xl650. I have only used them on the Hornady LNL single stage press setting up the load to test on my rifle.

Lee are good to go. Factory crimp die is the shiz.

If your budget allows, the Redding competition set will probably be the best. But they are salty.

I've been using the RCBS small base dies with good luck.
