matching dies?

[reaper4]

Does it matter if I use matching dies or not? I am getting an rcbs seating die and the other die is a HORNADY. am I going to run into any accuracy issues or anything else I should be worried about? Also I am going to be loading bullets from 55 to 68 grains what powder or powders should I be looking at for accuracy and I would like to keep the speed up if possible. As you can probably tell I am a newbie to all this and want to be as consistant as possible

Your dies will work fine together. I'm guessing this is a 223? I would look at Tac,or CFE223 or 8208XBR

Here's a good link for 223 data http://www.6mmbr.com/223Rem.html

Hey thanks ive been told benchmarks or varget but there are way too many choices. Now I'm thinking about loading some other bullets for fox too

Use whichever powder you can consistently get in your area. Doubtfull youll find 1 that gives amazing results and 1 that gives horrible. 90% of an accurate gun is being able to shoot a lot.

A few years ago i switched every round from paper to elk to varget. Its easier toget 1 powder than 20. Guess which powder is hard to find right now...
