Just picked up an sks and looking for a die set. I’ll have to figure out a mold for it as well.

lee makes both for it
Look at the ads at the top of the page. Either Titan or Midsouth will have dies, molds, gas checks. (If your going to go faster than 1400 fps I recomend a mold with a gas check)
Personally my Yugo likes the Lee .312 185 with gas check with modest amounts of IMR 4895. Soft shooting, accurate, cycles the action.
Now I can make very similar loads with Red Dot, but it won't cycle the action. Turns it into a straight pull bolt action. Which for keeping your good boxer primed brass is not all bad.
28 grains of 4895 will get you 250 loads per pound.
4.6 grains of Red Dot will get you over 1500 loads per pound.
Just for cost comparison. And yes, I like Red Dot/Promo, works in everything. Just does not always cycle the action.
I will donate a lee set of dies to U. may be slow shipping out due to mu health. Just pay 8.00 for shipping and they are yours. Paypal address is xbeeman412@aol.com
