Yup, should be the same for the x55.
Just remember to float the bushing a bit. Don't have it tight in the die.
If you want the flash titanium bits all good but you don't need them IMO to get a top quality load without lube.
Saves mess and time for 5 goes at least.

The TiN bushing is only $15 more than stainless so I don't mind really

Thought they were dearer when I looked at them ages ago. Might get some in 7mm and see what they are like.
Where are you ordering from? Sinclairs?
The last lot of stuff I got thru them the postage was reasonable. They still say $40 US but it was way cheaper.

Yeah Brownells. I'm not too worried about postage, $560 in the cart so far
