    I'd also look at a 30-06 body die just in case.

    You cant use a 3006 body die for a 280ai.



    @7mm tragic I would forget the neck sizing and just use a FL die. Neck sizing then bumping shoulder with a body die creates another step in the process you dont need. Improved cases with minium taper will benefit from FL over neck sizing.
    Just a slopy retrobate
