I was given a reloading set (RCBS Rock Chucker) and dies and am trying to get it set up so I can make some dud rounds.
I stopped by the gun shop in Mason City today and he showed me basically how to set the length of the seating die.
He also mentioned "Full Length" and "Small Base" dies and I think he said that I want the small base to use for an AR15.
Of course, mine are the full length.
What is the diff?
And can I use what I have?
Especially just to make some duds.
I have about 2 dozen cases that I have drilled holes through and want to resize and deprime them, then seat a bullet to the correct depth/length.
Might even go so far as to add some weight to bring them up to average loaded round weight.
Thoughts?

Also would like to get some .30-06 dies to reload for a Garand that I do not yet have.
Anything I should look to get or to avoid in those dies?
