Looking for hunting bullets. Anything with controlled expansion. I'm not too picky. Thinking, accubonds, gamekings, eldx, ttsx, lrx, maybe even ballistic tips.
Thank you all. If I’m following correctly it sounds like FL sizing die with a seating die would be the way to go to reach my stated goal of building up quality hunting rounds.
How do the FL sizing dies still create a consistent neck tension for each round? Does the bushing dies just let you adjust the neck sizing to adjust the amount of neck tension? Am I understanding that correctly?
What is the break down on dies and the proper application? I am seeing neck sizing dies, full-length sizing dies, full-length bushing sizing dies, then seating dies. Some of these come in 2 or 3 die sets.
What would experienced reloaders recommend for a new reloader looking to work up hunting...
Looking to trade 30-06 ammo for 6.5 creedmoor ammo. I would also consider trading for 6.5 mm bullets.

Question on brass. Does it matter what "manufacture" of brass I am using to work up some loads as long as I use the same? For example, if a manual says using Hornady Brass, is it ok to use Nosler Brass instead?
