[QUOTE="wapiti13, post: 131906, member: 2212"] Vic, The whole point of the neck bushing is to keep everything floating and centered. Assuming a centered neck in your chamber, the Redding dies will size correctly. Bullet seating allows a bullet to enter offline, which is why most use the benchrest Redding seating die. Run outs can be kept at .001 with care. I assume that you can get "too tight" with neck tension. According to Redding, .001 to .002 is OK, mainly neck tension just needs to keep the bullet from pulling during recoil. I would make a guess that the extra neck tension is allowing the primer/powder combe to burn more consistently. Not normally a problem in most loads??
