Small base die

Post by Ryan55555 »

Anyone out there using small base dies for their AR 204?

If so, where did you get it from?

You shouldn't need it, mine has a pretty tight chamber (according to my gunsmith) and regular Redding fl size die works fine.

I use the Redding FL dies for my AR and havent had a single problem
It's hard to detect good luck, It looks so much like something you've worked hard for and earned.
