[QUOTE="barefooter56, post: 1065037, member: 85389"] Bigeclipse, The problem is you may be sizing the neck twice. Try this, take two fired unsized cases. take the expander ball out of the LEE die. Now run one case through the LEE die and measure the OD of the neck. Do the same thing with the FL die with the decapping stem removed and measure the OD of the neck. Best case scenario would be if they are the same or really close. If the LEE die is much smaller than the RCBS see if you can polish out the neck sizing area of the die to what the RCBS measures. If the LEE die neck sized test case is larger than the RCBS you may just be good to go. Check with a concentricty gauge (if you have one) on the once fired case neck before you run it through the FL die, again after you run it through the FL and finally after running it through the neck die to see whats up and check the neck tension.
