    I've found the Forster Ultra Micrometer seating die absolutely first class for loading my 6.5mm SAUM ammo.

    The Forster die uses a sliding sleeve that the SAUM case sits perfectly in - exactly like the chamber of a rifle. This ensures that the bullet is in perfect alignment with the case neck.

    Of the last 40 rounds I loaded, 10 showed the worst runout at .003, while the other 30 were between .000 and .001.

    I got my die from Sinclair International. I think it was about $57.00 US landed here in NZ.
