[QUOTE="swampbug, post: 3013366, member: 115992"] This is why most people say with a bushing die, that nut is screwed down to just above the bushing so that when the die is reassembled, you can shake it and just barely hear the bushing rattle. That way it allows self centering of the bushing over the case neck and does not full length size the neck which may cause donuts. Precision reloaders like to only size the portion of the neck that actually holds the bearing surface of the bullet. That could be half way to 3/4 of the way down the neck. Some expensive fl dies actually have a " window " cut into the side of the die so you can see exactly how much of the neck is being sized. [/QUOTE]
