[QUOTE="brentc, post: 760161, member: 16938"] It's easy. The first firing will headspace of the belt no matter what. On the subsequent loads, the brass will completely fireform to the chamber. To headspace off the shoulder adjust the die to where it neck sizes only, or bumps the shoulder .001 to ease chambering the round if it gets tight. For neck sizing with a standard die, twist the die down where there is a space about the thickness of a penny between the shellholder and the bottom of the die, run a piece of brass through and check to see if the neck is sized down to the shoulder. If it's not completely sized, twist the die down in small increments until the the entire neck is sized. [/QUOTE]
