If you can fine everything you need most things will be on back order but, Cheaper then Dirt, Midway usa, Gunbroker, ebay, Midsouth shooters supply and local gun store. I've had primers and lead on order for 2 months now. Good luck.

I have found dies on ebay, flea markets, individuals. My rule of thumb is if I have it and don't really need it I will pay 15.00. If I kind of need it I will pay 20.00. If they are exotic I will pay upwards of 30.00.

The logic of having multiple dies for the same calibers is that they do not all size the base dimension the same. For instance I have 30.06 dies that size .466, .467, .469 and .471 and I have them marked so that the cases are sized the minimum amount to prolong case life. Conversely I have 30.06 rifles with .467, .469, .472 to .473 chambers.

I was just in a Bass Pro Shop today and their average dies were 33.00 and change for RCBS for what that is worth.
