It appears Midway USA has the RCBS in stock for the 257 Wby Mag. It may not be available as a set, but it appears they are available as individual items.

Redding, Forster, Hornady & Lyman all make quality dies. Try contacting Huntingtons in CA. direct. http://www.huntingtons.com/ Bet they can fill your needs.....

I really like the Redding Dies. I don't know if they are better than RCBS but I like the adjustment knobs. The last few sets I bought were Redding and I don't see any reason to change back. I guess it's more ofa personal preference thing!

Yes it will round out the neck, as the expander ball does most of that...
