22 GT gear list….what do I need?

[KyleC]

I'm an avid reloader and consider myself experienced. That said, I'm having my Kimber Montana rebarreled to 22 GT and really know nothing about what I need as far as dies etc. I plan on using Alpha brass with 22 GT head stamp. I've read online about using 6 GT dies with a bushing for .22 cal? Also, do I need and expander mandrel die?

I am using Forster 22GT FL bushing die w. Micrometer seater. They are awesome.

Okay. I use an expander on all new brass, then run the through a FL die to make sure neck tension is set. Short Action Customs makes nice dies as well as many other companies. That's an Chevy vs ford Toyota question

I have Forster Dies & Sinclair Mandrel die body with .222 & .223 TiN coated mandrels.

Should I get the Forster 6 GT bushing sizing die with a .249" bushing or just buy the standard Forster 22 GT sizing die?
