Small-base dies should be unnecessary for a military rifle. Mil ammo external dimensions didn't rely on that principle. The weapons were designed (meticulously) for a standard nominal case size, with tolerances on the loose side to allow for neglect/abuse, and still providing proper function.
Never heard of anyone doing it for an M1 Garand or an M1A, either.
