Dies

What are good dies for M1 garand? Should I use FL or SB? I have used RCBS Fl for 1903/1903a3 and I'm not happy with them. I have to size brass twice and sometimes it still feels tight. Any ideas?

Charlie is this brass fired in the 03 or is it once fired in another gun? I set my dies like this to contact the shell holder and 1/8 to 1/4 turn more. I have 3 rifles in 06 and each one has it own brass and fired cases wont fit fron gun to gun.
