[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 1155191, member: 39764"] Not sure of the point actually. I'm slowly converting over to (as my funds allow), JR Whidden die sets (been discussed on here in Len's product evaluation thread).... I think (from actual use) that Whidden dies are tits.... and you get what you pay for. John has also come up with a nice method of floating the decapping pin and expander ball (if you use one, I don't). As we all know, it's pretty **** hard to get an expander ball / decapping stem to sit concentric in the die bore, John fixed that issue quite handily, the entire assembly floats in the die body, kudo's to John for a simple soultion to a problem that impacts every brand of die. Far as bushings go, I machine my own from oil hardening ground drill rod, but thats neither here nor there other than I can custom machine bushings to an exact neck tension rather than jumping the 0.001 increments that stock bushings do.
