Happy day, looks like I'm getting an M1 carbine. I've started doing research on loading for it, and I'm a bit confused.
My Sierra book says to taper crimp it, since it is a straight walled cased that indexes on case mouth.
But, when I look at die sets, it seems that the only set that includes a taper crimp die is redding, but their set doesn't include a seater die.
RCBS, Lee, Hornady all are just sizer, expander, seater dies.
So, no matter what die set I go with, I still have to get another die?
What gives?
